The following email comes from Dr. Gad Rennert
<rennert_at_techunix.technion.ac.il>:
Dear all,
On this memorial day, when we remember our relatives who perished in the
camps (for me as a second generation, many who I never knew including my
grandfather Michael Rennert, my grandmother Rosa Rennert and her mother
Pepi
Dlugacz and many many more), I decided (with permission of his family) to
share with you a letter written in Transnistria by my grandfather's uncle
to
his son in (then) Palestine. This uncle died in camp and is buried in
Mogilev.
The letter is in German and was translated into Hebrew (not into English
yet
unfortunately) and is an amazing testimony of what people in transnistria
endured, what they knew of what was going on and what they hoped for (or
realized will not happen).
Let many of the statements in this letter be a constant reminder of what
our
families went through and what their aspirations were.
[Moderator's note: You can view the letter here:
