The photograph was taken in the year 1954 at my wedding in the Orthodox synagogue on Heydukova Street in Bratislava. The small man in the hat on the far right was named David Gluck, and was the rabbi in Hlohovec. The picture shows one of the men that gave their blessings during the wedding ceremony. Unfortunately I don't remember his name any more. I only know that he lived in Bratislava.
Blessing of the newlyweds Alica Gazikova and Albert Gazik
