HOLOCAUST LEGACY - Lost Generations


HOLOCAUST LEGACY

Papa, where are my uncles and aunties?
Why weren’t they here for Chanukah?
Where were they at Pesach?
Will they come for Sukkot?
Why don’t I have cousins to play with?
Where is Savtah and Sabba?
(Grandmother and Grandfather)
Momma, why is our family so small?


As a child, a small family was normal. However, growing older I began to notice other families, especially during holidays and special occasions, had aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents crowed into houses and spilling out onto front lawns. As an adult I tried to trace my family roots in Poland but always hit dead ends.

Running into dead end after dead end was discouraging. There was only one place where I could find results, Holocaust victim’s lists. Inputting our family name into Holocaust Internet sites produced several pages of those, with our family name, who were murdered in the camps. This is my legacy. Unfortunately, this situation is not uncommon in the world Jewish population.

There has been much written about the children of Holocaust survivors but relative little about descended, and extended, families of Holocaust victims. The absence of family, especially around holidays and special times, is a real loss. Listed below is a small list of some of the resources available on the Internet. From these resources, links to others may be found.

The most common employers of an ultrasound technician are general medical and surgical hospitals, doctors’ clinics and diagnostic imaging centers. These individuals are taught how to properly man ultrasound equipment and detect medical conditions. http://techniciansalary.net/ultrasound-technician-salary-in-alaska/

Мое свидетельство Всем привет. Я здесь, чтобы засвидетельствовать, как я получил ссуду от г-на Бенджамина Ли после того, как несколько раз обращался за помощью к различным кредиторам, которые обещали помочь, но так и не дали мне ссуду. Пока мой друг не представил меня г-ну Бенджамину Ли, он пообещал помочь мне, и он действительно сделал то, что обещал, без каких-либо задержек. Я никогда не думал, что есть еще надежные кредиторы, пока не встретил г-на Бенджамина Ли, который действительно помог с ссудой и изменил мою веру. Я не знаю, нужна ли вам настоящая и срочная ссуда. Не стесняйтесь обращаться к г-ну Бенджамину Ли через
