        Aunt Ruth (Jun 6, 1914 - Nov 12,2001) married Morris Zitlin on August 14, 1941. He
        enlisted into the Army on April 29, 1942 as a private shortly after the start of World War 11. He served in the war as a Warrant Officer and was involved in entertaining the troops in Italy. Aunt Ruth was an accomplished figure skater. They did not have any children. Uncle Morrie owned a large salvage company in Chicago and some hotels. They led a strange and sheltered life, and
        never invited anyone to their house. After she died, Robert Ward discovered she was a hoarder
        and lived in a house cluttered with worthless trash. In their will, they deliberately left a cousin
        out of the Zitlin's inheritance because of Charlene's defiant behavior towards her parents. I
        inherited a sizable amount of money.
