Well said,!! I totally agree with you,
 My parents had the Calotescu authorization but some of my family were
saved by the Popovici one. I think I knew your parents in the fifties when
we
lived in Mtl..My husbands name was Frank Cooper (,Kuperman) from
Czernowitz, and he would be now 91 years, so we were probably
contemporaries. my name is Fanny also from Czernowitz. I remember the
yearly Ball and Chanukkah parties.and Lori Einhorn who used to sing
together with my husband. Sheva Honig who was my friend. We left in 1964 to
Venezuela where my father was living since after the war.Have a happy
Pessach and a Shabbat
Shalom,Fanny.
