United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. HUBERT. All right. Then after you left the service in September of
1945, where did you go and what did you do?
Mr. SENATOR. When I came back out of the service, this fellow Ike
Heilberun, who I mentioned living down there, we went into the
luncheonette business and lasted approximately about a year and lost
our shirts.
Mr. HUBERT. What was the name of that? Is that the outfit called the
Denise Foods, Inc.?
Mr. SENATOR. Where is that located? Do you have the location on that?
Mr. HUBERT. 254 West 35th Street.
Mr. SENATOR. I couldn’t remember the name. I remember the street. That
is why I asked you.
Mr. HUBERT. In other words, that was a corporation formed by you and
this man you talked about?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes. We bought somebody out, that is right.
Mr. HUBERT. And you were occupied with that endeavor through most of
1946?
Mr. SENATOR. I would say approximately about that to the best of my
knowledge.
Mr. HUBERT. And where did you live then?
Mr. SENATOR. I was living—of course, I can’t remember if I got married
before that or after that.
Mr. HUBERT. But sometime along in there after you left the service, you
got married?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes. I believe I got married in January 1946, if I am not
mistaken.
Mr. HUBERT. What was the name of the lady you married?
Mr. SENATOR. Sherley Baren.
Mr. HUBERT. How do you spell that?
Mr. SENATOR. B-a-r-e-n.
Mr. HUBERT. Are you still married to her?
Mr. SENATOR. No.
Mr. HUBERT. Are you divorced?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. When? Approximately.
Mr. SENATOR. Approximately about 7 years.
Mr. HUBERT. Ago?
Mr. SENATOR. Approximately, I’m not sure of the date. I’d say
approximately about that.
Mr. HUBERT. In other words, you lived together as man and wife
approximately for 10 years?
Mr. SENATOR. No, no.
Mr. HUBERT. Seven years ago would be 1957. You said that you married
her in January of 1946. Maybe you did not live together that long.
Maybe the divorce came after you had physically separated.
Mr. SENATOR. Yes. Actually, we had been separated I would probably say
around 3 years, I think. I think it must have been around 3 years.
Mr. HUBERT. Before the divorce?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes. I think that is it.
Mr. HUBERT. Did you have any children of that marriage?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes. I have one son 16 years old.
Mr. HUBERT. He is now 16 years old?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. What is his name?
Mr. SENATOR. Bobby.
Mr. HUBERT. Where were you divorced?
Mr. SENATOR. Through the mail. She was in Miami and I was in Texas.
Mr. HUBERT. But where were the divorce proceedings actually instituted?
Mr. SENATOR. In Miami.
Mr. HUBERT. She brought the divorce suit?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Has she remarried?
Mr. SENATOR. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know to whom?
Mr. SENATOR. His name is Milton Wechsler. I am not sure of the spelling
of it. I think it is W-e-c-h-s-l-e-r. I think that is how you spell it.
Mr. HUBERT. Do you know where they live?
Mr. SENATOR. Coral Gables.
