I was reminded of my late beloved father, Norman Goren, by three answers in today's crossword. Norm, who was born almost exactly 103 years ago, was a bridge-playing (52A) opera-lover (54A) with Israeli relatives (51D). Goren is a common surname in Israel but uncommon in this country; growing up in Philadelphia, I was often asked if I was a relative of the famous bridge player (I'm not). Of course, I loved this puzzle!
