Jakov Kalef in the Jewish community building
Here is my grandfather uncle Jakov Kalef in the Jewish community building again. Benko Darsi, my cousin, is also pictured (third row from bottom first from right). Here my uncle is wearing a different medal from everyone else, but again I don't know what it was for.
Granduncle Jakov was on the board of the Jewish community. He worked a lot, he was very involved. He was also a cantor in the synagogue. Granduncle was involved in Jewish communal life and he kept my father and grandmother informed about everything. Because we were like one family and he was the head of the family. In fact, Jakov and Grandmother were the heads.
