His father abandoned the family when the child was an infant. His mother became a prostitute and the boy and his sister had to live with their grandmother. Early in life, he proved to be gifted for music and with three other kids, he sang in the streets of New Orleans. His first gains were the coins that were thrown to them. SUNDAY BRUNCH TWO SEATINGS @ 10 AM & 11:30 AM Sixteen17 will be setting up a different buffet each week. WEDNESDAY LUNCH DELIVERY A Jewish family, the Karnofsky’s, who had immigrated from Lithuania to the USA had pity for the 7 year old boy and brought him into their home. Initially given work in exchange for food, he was treated with kindness and tenderness for the first time in his life. When he went to bed, Mrs. Karnovsky sang him a Russian lullaby that he would sing with her. Later he would learn to sing and play several Russian and Jewish songs. Over time this boy would become the adopted son of this family. The Karnovskys gave him money to buy his first musical instrument, as was the custom in the Jewish families. They truly admired his musical talent. Later when he became a professional musician and composer, he used these Jewish melodies in compositions, such as St.James Infirmary and Go Down Moses. The little black boy grew up and wrote a book about this Jewish family who had adopted him in 1907. In memory of this family and until the end of his life, he wore a star of David. He said that in this family he learned “how to live - real life and determination” You might recognize his name! LUNCH IS DELIVERED BY 12 PM The little boy was Louis “Satchmo” Armstrong.
