I can not do so because my version of AOL is no longer compatible with the Rootsweb eMail processor ... For a death certificate for a death that occurred in NYC: http://www.nyc.gov/html/records/html/vitalrecords/home.shtml I hope this information is useful or, at least, interesting. L'Shannah Tovah* & Happy 5768, Walter Greenspan Great Falls, MT & Jericho, NY * L'Shannah Tovah (li-SHAH-nuh TOH-vuh; li-shah-NAH toh-VAH) Hebrew. Lit. for a good year. The common greeting during Rosh ha Shannah and the Days of Awe. This is a shortening of "L'Shannah tovah tikatev v'taihatem" (or, to women, "L'Shannah tovah tikatevi v'taihatemi"), which means, "May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year." This year, Rosh ha Shannah will begin at sunset on Wednesday, September 12 on the civil calendar. ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour
