I had the privilege December 16 of representing the mayor and city council at the annual holiday luncheon of the Côte Saint-Luc Senior Social Club. Past president Eva Silverman, who is full of energy, served as the master of ceremonies and Peggy Pardo on guitar sang some Chanukah favorites. We all enjoyed a delicious kosher lunch of filet of sole, potatoes and latkes. I was asked to light the Chanukah menorah as Al Grosser, a longstanding member of the Senior Men's Club, recited the Chanukah blessing.Later I had a chance to speak to the audience of about 75 people. I congratulated them for the wonderful activities they organize. In fact, I will be the guest speaker at their meeting of March 17, 2010. Before I left I joined club president Barbara Akerman in presenting the tirelless Eva Silverman with a bouquet of flowers. One final note: at my table was the absolutely incredible Mollie Udashkin. Mollie, the grandmother of our city clerk and director of legal affairs Jonathan Shecter, is 99 years young. She still lives on her own and leads various seniors groups in exercise classes
