Dear Raanan,

My name is Yehudit Yerushalmi-Terris ( nee Engelberg-Kinsbruner) born 1935
in Czernowitz. I live in Rishon le zion, my .
  We were deported to Transnistria in year 1941. My whole family died from
thyphos and hunger, my younger sister, g. parents from both sides, my
oncle. I manage to survive I don't know how, and was wondering left alone a
child of six years old, among the sick people who lay down in a barak
without any treatment and food and didn't catch the illness. Then after
two weeks my mother and father who survived we went to a house of an old
Ukrainian who had merci on us and gave us shelter. At the Ghetto my father
was sent to forced labour at a labour Camp to build a Bridge on the river
Bug under the supervision of the SS.
  After the War we returned to Czernowitz, I was already 9 years and didn't
attend any school. I had to study Russian and entered the second grade.
Again we travelled to Rumania-Bucharest and had to study again Rumanian and
French. In 1950 we came to Israel. I am married and have two children and
six grand children.

For further details please don't hesitate to contact me.

Regards,

Yehudit Yerushalmi-Terris
