Kudos to Bruce and Jerome!

It's your special personality and sensitive moderation, which inspires and encourages list members as me, to contribute in extending the data base on Bukovina, Czernowitz and Sadagora. The enormous data, gathered/treasured by Ehpes, especially in the archives between 2002 and 2010, the pictures/postcards, reports/biographies, etc., etc, represent a fortune for our group, but for future generations too.

As we'are on the point of completing the Czernowitz Directory for the year 1927 soon - Martina accomplished "T" - the data base will increase again.

Thank you so much for your outstanding dedication and all others for their precious contribution!
