AS AN ETERNAL REMEMBRANCE
of my beloved parents

YITSKHAK ISSER LISS and wife SORAH LEAH
and of all the martyrs of our home Bransk –
those whom I remember and those whom I don't, and those whom I never
knew – may these words be as a dead anniversary light
for the snuffed–out lives, murdered
by the vicious hands in a world without emotion watched
and remained silent to their screams of pain.
We will never forget you, forever
will we sorrow for your
martyrs' death

From

Of our beloved parents, sisters and brothers, brothers–in–law and

forgotten by us.
