Carola Rosman with her nephew and niece

The photograph was taken in 1931 in Bucharest, at the wedding of Carola Rosman [nee Mizrahy], my father's sister. From right to left: Carola Rosman, my sister, Mira Cotin [nee Mizrahy], and me, Dan Mizrahy.

Carola Rosman was born in 1906 in Bucharest. She married Iancu Rosman and the two of them had two boys: Dan Rosman and Lucian Rosman. My aunt was an exemplary housewife who loved to have guests; her stuffed fish was exquisite and all her meals were delicious and abundant. She lived at 43 Banu Maracine Street, between the two Spanish temples. For as long as I was a child, we all went to her place after the Kippur fast was over, and she welcomed us with the traditional teaspoonful of preserves. The house she received as dowry, where she lived until 1951, when she made aliyah with her husband and children, was nationalized. 

I was born in 1926 in Bucharest. My sister Mira was born in 1923 in Bucharest.
