A letter of thanks written to the Rav for the condolence letter after the death of their father.
"ואף כי מעי מעי המו עליו וליבי חלל בקרבי הפרד דבקים יחדיו במות אבינו ז"ל עלינו נכנסו דבריו האמורים ברגשי אהבה… ערבו לי להשקט נפשי כי דברים היוצאין מן הלב ונכנסים אל הלב. וד’ ברוב רחמיו יתן שלא ישמע עוד פרץ וצוחה ברחובותינו".

In the months from 03 -08 1942 many Jews were expelled from the town to the extermination camps of Majdanek and Auschwitz. The cemetery and synagauges in the city were destroyed. In the year 1945 there was a pogrom in the town where dozens of Jews who servived the Holocaust had returned to the city, after the Slovakians took over their properties and houses and treated them with much hostility. Following this no Jews were left in the city.
