Story of the Purim queen
Posted
The newspaper clippings sent in by Cohen.Pauline (Dress) Cohen of Providence sent us the following story with accompanying photos from the newspaper.
“I was crowned Queen Esther in March 1952 at the Jewish Community Center in Providence. Among a few gifts there was a free trip to Grossinger’s Resort in New York. It had to be used within a year. After consideration, my boyfriend, Barry Cohen, and I decided it would make a great honeymoon. He was 20 and I was 19. We married the first day of spring, March 21, 1953. We have four children and four grandchildren and will celebrate our 63rd wedding anniversary this Purim.”
