Dear Edgar and Czernowitzers

thanking you and expressing gratitude for the ongoing gems we share - warm treasures and tragic losses.
My parents - like Cora Schwartz’s late husband - were survivors of Transnistria and the town of Mogilev (interesting web-links http://myshtetl.org/vinnitskaja/mogilev_en.html <http://myshtetl.org/vinnitskaja/mogilev_en.html>, https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/transnistria <https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/transnistria> https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/romania <https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/romania> https://www.jewishpress.com/indepth/front-page/transnistria-the-forgotten-death-camp/2018/03/07/ <https://www.jewishpress.com/indepth/front-page/transnistria-the-forgotten-death-camp/2018/03/07/> ) My parents Naftali and Paula Tillinger (nee Krumholtz) spoke very little about their experiences in Mogilev - my father said he wheeled his mother crippled with arthritis in a wheelbarrow towards the Dniester River. I remember him crying as he said she begged him to help her die so she would not be a burden to them. My mother described the house they were crammed into as having ice on the inside of the walls, they slept on the floor in a corridor and she was lucky enough to survive typhus.
My father was a furrier and the family survival depended on his knowledge and skill - soldiers shot animals and my father knew 2 ways of “dressing and tanning” pelts - one way was with chemicals and the other with maize flour. He asked the soldiers for both to prepare and make fur collars so they could survive the cold. He used the chemicals for the furs and the maize flour for the family to eat.

I would love the see the films Edgar Hauster has sent links to - I cannot find the email links and would be grateful if you could resend them.

Warm wishes
Ethel Tillinger
