[Cz-L] Language

Follow-up on Charles's story: In Bucharest his aunt lived in the same
house as we did . She was married to a Ukrainean, Titus Vorobciuk, who
spoke perfect Jiddish (much better than Charles!) and quite good German.
I believe he saved her life during the war.
Another friend of my mother, was also married to a Ukrainean. He also
spoke Jiddish very well. When she died he travelled to Israel to bury
her, and in his testament he laid down that he be buried next to her in
Israel.
So there were gentiles in Czernowitz who felt good in Jewish society
and were accepted as real friends. Maybe not so many as we would have
liked.
