Description

"I was born in the small town of Ft. Kent, Maine, on September 26, 1919, to Meyer Blumberg and Minnie Klein Blumberg."

Thus begins the autobiography of Mendel Blumberg, as told in his own wry, understated, reflective style.

As a member of the Greatest Generation, he experienced the Great Depression as a teenager and then fought in World War II through the brutal campaigns in North Africa and southern Europe. Vowing that "I would never be cold again," he moved to Florida and had careers as a racehorse trainer, as a postal worker and union representative, and as a women's professional golf tour official. He never married, yet he had a number of long-term relationships with "beautiful women with great personalities. I feel like I've had five long honeymoons."

He never had children, yet he had a lasting impact on his nephews, nieces, cousins' children, and their families. He was our much-loved Uncle Mendy.
