It's with great sadness to read on the passing of our dear friend and member, Sylvia de Swaan. Sylvia lived an extraordinary and full life. I will cherish the moments meeting with her face to face, listening to her discuss her story of survival, like in June 2015 and in August 2016: https://hauster.blogspot.com/2015/06/meeting-friends-in-lemberglviv-1873-km_ 15.html https://hauster.blogspot.com/2016/08/meeting-friends-in-stryi-and-lviv-4060. html She was an invaluable a true Mentsh. She will be missed.

I'm very sad to let you know of Sylvia's passing in early December, 2023. Despite the loss of her father and other family members during the war, she survived along with her mother and sister, and went on to live a wonderful life as an artist in New York City, Mexico City, New Orleans, and finally upstate New York since 1975. Several years ago, she traveled back to Bukovina with our wonderful chronicler and photographer, Christian Herrmann. You can read more about Sylvia here. She will truly be missed by many. https://www.uticaod.com/obituaries/pnys0651167?fbclid=IwAR0nW15HeBnpurzMDaxZ nVk9GpqOIJBxLvml5JSzIT7ryZH27bOETpxgEDs Bruce ________________________________ ________________________________ This moderated discussion group is for information exchange on the subject of Czernowitz and Sadagora Jewish History and Genealogy.
