Sleeping with the Enemy: Madoff

Like other regions, New England, large as it is, is also as small as the palm of my hand and stories like this one touch very closely on relationships that spread like ubiquitous poison ivy.

The Jaffe family is well known throughout New England and this can only hurt them and those around them.

Another branch of the Jaffe family tree lived and worked in Rhode Island. One of the younger Jaffe's opened the first health food store in Providence on Hope Street and his father had an open door policy and often provided funds to local organisations and for local events.

As the list grows of those affected by Madoff, I shudder!
