Tisha B'Av 2022 - Remembering My Shoah Victims

-

On Tisha B'Av my thoughts turned to my family that perished in the Shoah.

My goal for the year is to prepare a more structured list of lost family that I hope to be able to read in Temple on Yom HaShoah, next April 27th 2023.



I started by making sure that all my Genealogical records were up-to-date and included a reference to the Yad Vashem "Page of Testimony". I then added all my Shoah victim, family members to Geni.com and started a project with all of them: Michael Snyder's Family that Perished in the Shoah.

During the process, I discovered 20 additional names in Yad Vashem to add to my family members list:

  L'Shana Tovah   Family,  This family letter come 9 months late, as the secular New Year was a hard time for me. I’m sure you all are well aware that my Mom, Cevia Rosol, z”l  (of blessed memory), passed away on December 28, 2022 after a turbulent 8 months, closely following the death of her husband of 43 years, George Rosol z”l, who passed away on May 2, 2022.  Here is my Eulogy for my Mom, for those who missed it:  I miss my Mom already. My name is Michael Snyder; Mikey to her. I thought that bringing her from Maine to Maryland would allow me and other family members to have a renewed and extended opportunity to spend quality time, share experiences, and create bonding memories. Sadly that did not happen.   My Mom wanted to live her life on her own terms. She loved her husband George more than anyone else on Earth. Now she has joined him for eternity and hopefully they are at peace.  Mom was creative, artistic, well organized, and a bit stubborn. She was a good mom to me. I was

As the War rages on, people of Ukraine need help with the little things

Direct Help to Ukrainian Individuals and Families When I visited Ukraine in 2018, one of my best resources was the secretary (Victoria Chymshyt) of the local Synagogue in Rivno. Gratefully, she and her son have escaped to Warsaw. She continues to stay connected and help out her congregational friends and families both inside Ukraine and refuges outside, like herself. I reached out to her to find out how we could help her community directly. She and the head of her community responded with 2 projects:   One of the biggest challenges is staying connected to family and friends and using their other cell phone apps. Believe it or not, communication and other services available on cell phones can be more important to them than food. "We will choose the numbers of those who need it the most. That would be great help.", Vik.   <<READ THIS RELAVANT ARTICLE> https://www.treehugger.com/people-are-outraged-see-refugees-smartphones-they-shouldnt-be-4867591 One of the congregants
