I have dim memories about my paternal grandmother. Her name was Feiga Lemberg. Her non-Jewish neighbors called her Fania. I don’t know her date or place of birth, or her maiden name. She was a short thin woman. She wore dark clothes, long skirts and a dark kerchief on her head. My grandmother lived in the small town of Ananiev in Odessa region [320 km from Kiev, 160 km from Odessa 1, where our family lived. My grandmother lived with my father’s sister. I don’t know how deeply religious my grandmother was. She talked with me in poor Russian and she spoke Yiddish with my parents.
