In 1898 you and your family, the Gold Coast, took a boat to escape the violent massacre of Russian Jewish families connived by Tsar Alexander 111.
You have just arrived in the United States. This is a place of opportunity. You have the right to worship religious freedom according to your choice. Your home will be with your parents and sister in Newport News, Virginia. Your parents are very religious and have chosen a man to get you married from this ancient country. But you met and fell in love with an American boy.
Your parents said that you can't marry him. "We chose your husband, David Shapiro." The man you want to marry speaks a lot of language and is considered a well-educated, Hebrew school teacher. He has no improvement, but in order to commemorate your parents, you must marry him. Your name is Bechie Goldean Shapiro.
After a year of marriage, you can make a delicious dinner on the table with the most beautiful porcelain, silverware and glassware on the table. Your new husband sat down and pulled down the tablecloth and said, "This is very interesting to me." He has an extraordinary gift to remove the tablecloth from the table without damaging the cutlery or silverware, but he I can't make a living with this skill.
What would you do? You must find a way to support your husband and children. You have a daughter Belle.
You have a few beautiful cups and saucers. You decide to try to sell them on the Jefferson Avenue side. That day you found out that you have a gift, and over time, you started a department store called Shapiro. It became a family department store selling household items, clothes and shoes for men, women and children. Your daughter Belle will work for your son Max and your son Max.
On August 12, 1924, the 20th anniversary of her daughter Bell, Bechie Goldean Shapiro died of cancer. My father's mother, Belshapiro Frank, and my grandmother continued to open the store. Belle buys beautiful clothes for women in New York City. She married the man she chose before her mother died, and my grandfather, Louis Charles Frank, came from Lithuania.
When Grandpa was 11 or 12, he was like a young teenager coming to the United States. He always joked that he arrived in the United States on a covered wagon. He worked with his son Robert at the men's department store in Shapiro. Robert works in the footwear industry. After working in Shapiro's department store, he helped those who forgot to wash their feet to try on shoes. He was inspired and studied harder so that he could go to college and become an engineer or doctor. He was the first person in the family to go to college. Shapiro's department store has provided Shapiro and the Frank family with more than 25 years of support.
