Regina and Samuil Yulzari

Regina and Samuil Yulzari

These are my cousins Samuil or Sami and Regina Yulzari, the children of my father's brother Chelebi. The photo was taken in Sofia in 1947. My uncle Chelebi was a tall, strong man with big blue eyes and a good heart. The whole family on my grandfather Kemal and my grandmother Gracia's side are blue-eyed. He had two children, Sami and Regina. Uncle Chelebi left for Israel with his family in 1948, where they stayed until they died. Regina became a well-known journalist in Israel, while Sami was a dental surgeon.
