Anna and Sandor Abrahamovic with their cousin

This is my sister Anna or Anusa Abrahamovic, nee Friedmannova with her husband Sandor Abrahamovic, who is standing on the left, and on the right is our cousin, who fled to the east, and into the Soviet Union. Later we found out that he had died in one of the Gulag camps, so his escape from the fascists didn't help him. Anusa was a student and had a great musical talent. She was playing the violin. She married Sandor Abrahamovic in 1937. In 1938 their son Herbert was born. Unfortunately, they all died in the Holocaust. Anusa died in Lublin ghetto, Sandor and their son Herbert died in Treblinka. Little Herbert was only four years old when he was killed.
