Ruhla Butnaru and Moses Meer at his weeding

This photo was taken at the weeding of my brother Moses Meer in Israel.

The one on the right is Hanina Meer my second brother.

To his left is the Groom, Moses Meer with his bride, Hermina Meer.

Next to the bride is my aunt, Ruhla Butnaru, my mother’s sister, who raised us here in Dorohoi.

There was no year on the Photo written, don’t remember when the wedding was.

Moses left for Israel in 1947 and my aunt with Hanina in 1951, so I suppose Moses married in the 1960’s.
