Bela Ishakh with her grandson Roman Grigorov

Report an issue


Here you can see me with my beloved grandson Roman as a school leaver. This picture was taken in 1990 when the son of my elder daughter Sonia Grigorova graduated from a college for commercial and industrial management.

At present Roman Grigorov has a degree as an engineer. He works for a company and they are very satisfied with him. His son, Ben, was born in 2004. Roman lives together with his family in Ramat Gan and his name is no longer Roman, but Aron. He changed his name in Israel, because when he was born in Bulgaria, children from mixed marriages were not allowed to have foreign names. He was registered as a Bulgarian citizen.
