Radautz is where my Kastner family came from.

Subject: [Cz-L] Book of the Month, September 2017: About my Family /
Autobiographical Fragments
Czernowitzers...
This month I'd like to present to you the Radautz memoirs of the Stenzler
family, both in English and in Romanian language, as well as "Osias
Stenzler's Radautz Booklet":
http://czernowitzbook.blogspot.de/2017/09/about-my-family-autobiographical.h
tml
Osias' "Autobiographical Fragments" are prefaced by Bondy's introduction
"About my Family" and are reflecting the fate of a Jewish family from
Bukovina in an exemplarily way. From Osias Stenzler's Credo: "God blessed me
with a long life, celebrating in Radauti between friends, 95 years of life
and I hope the divinity will give me some more time (my grandfather reached
a hundred years). I let my followers the confession of my work, saying that
each of us must put the shoulder, if we want the society to move in the
desired direction for us. Of course the road is not easy, it is done with
sacrifices and offerings..".
"The Osias 'Shike' Stenzler Radautz Booklet" is a unique document compiled
by Osias Stenzler over about three decades until his death in the year 2008
at the age of 99 years. His memory, unlike his eyesight, never faded, even
at an advanced age. After the loss of vision, Osias' sons Daniel and Bondy
kept his records from dictation and so we have the rare opportunity to
discover a real treasure chest making alive the Jewish life in post WW2
Radautz. The booklet is headlined "Occupations and Professions Practiced by
the Jewish Population of Radautz", but beyond the long list of names it
contains authentic notes and remarks on the Radautz Jewish community.
Thank you, dear Bondy, for sharing these testimonies with all of us!
