Hi Jerome, hi Judy
I loaded dawn the two pictures frrm Judy Kenna you posted, yhanks, from the
one with the six persons, in my opinion the young man with two girls is
Joseph Schmdt, I knew him personnally in 1934, when he was in Czernowitz.
At the ceremony of the opening of the a new part of the Jewish Hospital, a
group photo was made of the whole assistace.. Joseph Schmidt asked me if I
don't mind to stay near me, we had the same hyght. I was a pretty teenager
of 14, my oncle, who was in the commitew brought me the picture..we stayed
in the first line..
Bests regards Hedwig
