Bernard Goldsmann

In this photo you can see Bernard Goldsmann, my maternal grandfather. The photo was taken in Sibiu, when he was in his 40s I think, but I don?t know when exactly or if it was a special occasion or not.

He was married to my grandmother, Estera Goldsmann, and they lived in Sacele, but that's all I know about him. My mother, Paraschiva Goldsmann, didn't talk much about him. He must have been buried in a Jewish cemetery, but I don't know where.
