NANCY GORMAN
OF
GLASSMAN OLDSMOBILE/SAAB
WINNER OF THE
1989 SAAB LONG RUN CONTEST
WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS
OPPORTUNITY TO THANK THE FOLLOWING:
In the charming provincial
town of Debrecen, near the
Romanian border, an elderly
•
man named Ludwig lives a
life of loneliness and
•
memory as one of only about
250 Jews left in the town,
where the pre-war Jewish
population was nearly
10,000.
Ludwig eagerly welcomed
some unexpected Jewish
visitors to his spacious
apartment, which stands
around the corner from both
functioning synagogues in
the town, and not far from
the town's kosher restau-
rant. "We daven every day,
but it is often difficult to get
a minyan," he said.
•
Ludwig's home is cramm-
.
ed with heavy wooden fur-
niture, and paintings cover
the walls. A piano stands in
one corner and a violin lies
▪
on a sideboard, closed in its
case. "I'm all alone here,
now," he said in a mixture of
w fractured German and
Yiddish. Then he turned to
the pictures neatly displayed
h-. on a cabinet.
"This was my grandfather,
a famous rabbi," he said,
showing a black and white
photo of a stern-faced man
►
with a long gray beard.
"This was my sister," he
said, showing another pic-
ture, this time of an attrac-
✓
▪ - tive young woman. "She
died in Auschwitz."
He counted on his fingers
— two, three, four — his
• - family members who died in
the Holocaust. And he found
a photograph of the former
▪
main synagogue — an impos-
ing building with two
towers, also now
destroyed. L

Jew Is Stabbed
In Old City
Jo-
Jerusalem (JTA) — A
Jewish immigrant on his
way to pray at the Western
Wall was stabbed by two
young Arabs using a
screwdriver Sunday in the
Old City.
The victim, Avraham Feld,
35, sustained only slight in-
juries.
Police closed the Old City
gates for about an hour after
the incident. An undisclosed
number of Arabs were ar-
rested for questioning.
Feld, a former New Yorker
who settled in Israel more
than 10 years ago, is mar-
ried and has several
children.
AND TO ALL OF MY CUSTOMERS
FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE.
P.S. A SPECIAL THANKS TO MY FAMILY FOR PUTTING
UP WITH ME DURING THIS YEAR LONG CONTEST!
