My wife and I live in Brooklyn, N.Y., not too far from where my Long Island childhood happened.

I grew up in Brooklyn.

And my little sister died when she was 16.

I was born in Brooklyn, but I never lived there.

I grew up in Manhattan, and now I live in Brooklyn.

My life in Brooklyn was in constant danger because of my bad health.

My mom lives in New York still in the home that I grew up in.

I always went to my sister, because she was older and had the care of me after my mother died.

I was raised in Brooklyn, and I lived there for 59 years.

On a personal note, I was born in Brooklyn. My folks moved out to Long Island when I was quite young, but once a Brooklynite, always a Brooklynite.
