St Moritz, 26/11/38 Carlton Hotel E. Scherz, Dir. Dear Mum, These are now the last lines that I’m sending to you before we’re all together once more. Don’t let the progress be too hard for you. It’s also nice outside without money, one is a person again, always keep that in mind. Your children love you so much, that it will be a thousand times better life for you with us.
English translation by Rabbi Dr. Esther Jilovsky.
