Irena Wygodzka’s friend Marta with her sister

This is a picture of my friend Marta. I don’t know what Marta’s family name was.

I knew her from before the war, we were in the same Zionist youth organization, Akiba. The picture was taken in Sanok, during the war. I stopped there on my way from Lwow to Katowice.

I was in Sanok for one day and that’s when I saw Marta. Marta gave me her picture as a keepsake, in the picture she's holding her little sister. Marta didn't survive the Holocaust.
