In this picture you can see my grandfather, Julius Weisz, and his niece with her son. The picture was probably taken in Karlovy Vary, but I don't know when. Grandpa's niece, Ilus Weisz and her son Erik Weisz later moved to Israel, because life in Mocenok was terrible. I met the boy in Israel, but he didn't remember me at all. At that time his mother was already long dead.
