My cousin Maryann and I recently met Millie and Angela at a funeral service for an old friend Dolly Vita who recently passed away. We started talking about Mah Jongg and how we have wanted to learn how to play. My cousin and I both have Mah Jongg sets from our moms who passed away and played the game probably 50 years ago.

As a matter of fact, my mom Phyllis played with Millie back on Cleveland Street. The picture on the header of this website happens to have been taken in my childhood home on Cleveland Street! My mom, Phyllis, is in the picture (her back turned, as she is busy playing the game.)

Millie and Angela excitingly offered to teach us how to play Mah Jongg and set up a date to teach my cousin and I. We played as kids but it has been 40 years since then, and we truly need a refresher course. We are really excited and can’t wait for our first scheduled class on March 18th, 2012.

Thanks girls, can’t wait!
