Grigoriy Tets

Report an issue

This is my brother Grigoriy Tets spending vacation in the recreation center in Druskininkai in 1982.

My older brother Grigoriy, named after grandfather Hirsh, was born in 1914. After finishing the gymnasium Grigoriy entered the Law Faculty of Riga University. He also worked in a law office at night. This job enabled him to earn his living. Grigoriy was good at his studies. My brother was a convinced Zionist.

In 1946 my brother went to work as a lawyer at a plant., soon after that he married Maria Gaisunskaya and they had a daughter, Ilana.

In 1984 my brother Grigoriy died. We buried him at the Jewish cemetery.
