Views on life as seen
through the eyes of David Kupler (Y74) at… KUPKAKE’S KORNER
London by night… There’s a free for all in London Dean Street is on fire The rickshaws are all plying But they always have time to hound us The drunks are holding up lampposts But we’re out there regardless Kopyright Kupkake 2009 |

As we go through
life, we gather many acquaintances along the way but can count
ourselves lucky to find a few that you can call true friends.
Carole was a true friend. Someone I could always rely on to be
loving, caring, supportive and honest. I could always rely on
Carole to lift my spirits when I was down
and be someone who was always there for me in both good times
and bad. We shared so much together in our lives, laughing together at family occasions, choosing our outfits together for weddings and barmitvahs. I remember clearly when Alan and I got married; Carole was so excited for us both! She helped me organise my outfit, my hair, arranged for her Alan to have his taxi cleaned and bedecked with white ribbon ready to take me from her house to the synagogue and was there by my side throughout the day. The reception was held at our home and I seem to remember that Carole was the last to leave and was even seen to be hovering our hall on the way out! Sadly life isn’t always about fun days. Carole and I were also |
there for each other when
times were darker and we needed each other’s support. Who else
could I ring at 7 in the morning, not feeling at my best and yet
still be cajoled into believing that going to the gym would be
good for me and that as I was up anyway, why not go – and of
course she was right. It was Carole who sat with me when I was scared to be on my own whilst recovering from my illness, so that Alan could eventually go back to work. As I write this, I am looking at a photo of Carole and I taken at my granddaughter’s batmitzvah in May, just one month before Carole was taken ill. We both had great big silly grins on our faces and that is how I will remember Carole. Making me laugh and filling me with her infectious enthusiasm for life. Carole had a great capacity for loving and caring for all those she held dear. I am privileged to say I was one of many for whom that was true. I will miss her so very much. Sleep in everlasting peace my darling friend Carole. Linda Fisher |
