Hello Czernowitzers,
Work to clear the cemetery of sapling trees, bushes and vines continues
this summer and by the end of August, I expect that 7.3 hectares of the
cemetery will have been cleared of all weedy vegetation.
In the fall the city administration will cut down some of the mature Norway
maples, which by their abundant seed production contribute greatly to the
growth of sapling trees. The city will also spray some cleared areas with
herbicides. Other areas will be sprayed with herbicides generously supplied
to us free of charge by Monsanto.
Yet, unless more people contribute financially to CJCRO, the restoration of
the cemetery will stop right there. 4.3 hectares of the cemetery will remain
in their jungle-like condition and seeds from the invasive trees, bushes and
vines which grow in that part of the cemetery, will scatter to the cleared
areas, so that they too, will return to their previous neglected state.
So far all contributions to CJCRO, have come from just 62 individual
contributors. Many more members of this list have relatives interred in the
Czernowitz Jewish cemetery, yet they have not participated in this communal
effort.
Please, if you have not contributed so far, contribute now.
Do not let the cemetery become a jungle. Do not expect others to pay for the
restoration of YOUR ancestors gravesites.
Please send contributions from within the US, either by personal check made
out to "Czernowitz Jewish Cemetery Restoration Organization" and sent to me

been credited to the account.

the US, can be sent to me via Western Union, at my address:

Contributions from Canada should be in US Dollars and made out by a bank
which has branches in the US. Otherwise, I have to pay $45 for the
transfer of funds.

to the bank.

and each contributor will get a second acknowledgement from Wolfi.
