Re: Possibly relocating to St. Augy in Spring

Ira Katz <sema042...@gmail.com>

Hello Pete!

My name is Ira and I have been planning to become a member since moving here
3 years ago. My wife passed away last September leaving me to raise our
"gifted" 14 year old daughter. I live in Jacksonville, Bartram Springs area
having just moved last month.
I work in Palm Coast as a Financial Analyst. I do not know of St Augustine
apartments too well but there is a rental community near the outlet shops
that are very nice and affordable but also small (1000 sf) and they were
just not for us.

It would be wonderful if we could become friends. I am alone and have been
looking for female companionship which has been a tough road. I am Jewish
and meeting a Jewish woman around here is not too easy. I have not sought
male friends over all since I do not drink or smoke and guys tend to to
those things.

I will be happy to help in any way I can. I also would very much like to
join a Lodge and maybe you can help me with that!
