Rabbi Friedman from Stefanesti

Report an issue

This is a photograph of the rabbi from Stefanesti, rabbi Friedman. When I, Berta Finkel, was little, I was a rather sickly child - I don't know why -, and my mother and father - may God rest their souls - went to the rabbi in Stefanesti, rabbi Friedman, and he told them: 'She will grow stronger in time.' They visited the rabbi in Stefanesti only once. This was a long time ago, when there were many Jews living in Stefanesti - I don't know whether there are any left there. But I think at that time they got this photograph.
