It was top of mind for several people who milled around a community center recently as a canasta game ended in Plantation, Fla.

One longtime contributor, Mitchell Abidor, 70, compared the magazine’s former iteration, even before Mr. Bush’s arrival in 2002, to “friendship clubs in Miami Beach, where old Jews would sit around and play canasta and moan.”

Ladies at canasta tables now compare notes on their favorite cannabis tinctures.

“Coates had those steely blue eyes, and after the canasta comeback, he threw the cards out the window. He was kind of an out-of-control guy.”
