Simon Meer and school colleagues

This photo was taken at the Israeli School in Dorohoi, where I made the four primary classes. I am in the fourth row to the right. The one in the back row to the right is the school principal, Herscovici, the left Mina

Solomon - our teacher, and the rest of the men are probably members of the Dorohoi Jewish Community, they were not our teachers.

My colleagues-- I do not emember or recognize most of them anymore. Among those in this highest row - the fourth on the left - is Leibovici, on the right of Opincaru.

The others are no longer alive. Most of them are dead. And of those who still live are most in Israel. Here in Dorohoi I have no friends from the school.
