Czernowitzers...
There were good reasons to deflect from my initially scheduled return trip via Ukraine and Poland to Germany and to go back to Romania. In Cluj-Napoca I had the opportunity to meet our fellow member Prof. Dr. Ossi Horovitz as well as Irene Ciobotaru and her daughter Ingrid Ventuneac:

It was Dr. Albert Twers, who acted as messenger between the deportees in Transnistria and their relatives and friends from Bukovina. On 03.01.1942 Dr. Albert Twers was captured and arrested by the police at the Czernowitz Central Station, carrying 213 "Undelivered Letters from the Death Camps of Transnistria"; read more at the posting above.
Made possible by Dragos Olaru from Czernowitz, it was my privilege to meet Dr. Albert Twers' daughter Irene Ciobotaru and his granddaughter Ingrid Ventuneac, to learn more on their family history and to get access to additional documents and photos.
