Dear Mr. Fuhr,

I must admit that I too was ignorant of your being a member of the
Czernowitz-List,
nor do I know what accomplishments brought you the OBE or the CBE.
Congratulation on both awards!
Whenever a Czernowitzer, even one removed by generation is singled
out for honors,
all of us other Czernowitzers glow with pleasure, or as they say in
Yiddish "shepp Naches".

Please tell us more about your parents and yourself,

Mimi (Miriam Reifer Taylor)
