My auncle and aunt, Ljudevit and Stefi Preger.
The photo was taken in Zagreb, Croatia, 1911. Ljudevit was my father’s youngest brother. He escaped to the USA with his wife and son. At the begining of the war they were with us in Split, then they went to Italy, from there to Uruguay and finally to the USA. His son recently died, and Ljudevit lived 97 years.
