Irma Gluck

Irma Gluck

In this picture you can see Irma Gluck, my maternal grandmother's sister, at the age of 14. She was often at her Uncle's in Vienna as a little girl, where her sister Jeanette lived at that time. She became a beautiful woman, with reddish hair and green eyes. She was a dressmaker, she had her own salon with several employees. She had many admirers, a big company, she dressed elegantly. She was at health resorts several times, in Trencsenteplic for example. She lived alone, she didn't get married, perhaps because of her illness. Her 12 years older brother, Dezso, who was a doctor, knew that turbeculosis would kill her early, just as it had killed their mother and was going to kill him. He loved his sister, he sent her kind, chaffy postcards from many different places. Irma died at the age of 38.
