Eli Grundman, of blessed memory Eli Grundman was a wealthy merchant, owner of a large steel and building supplies store, in May 3rd Square no.5, a store that has been in the Grundman family for generations. This is one of the oldest and most firmly established families in Radomsk. Eli Grundman was thin and quick, always in good humor; he was always helpful in private and with caring to his fellow man. He was a pious man and belonged to the Sokacew Hasidic shtibel and was often times even a cantor on Shabbosim and yomim tovim. He was involved in public life and for many years was an active member in the management of the charity fund and the management of the bank (headed by Moishe Berger); he was also active in the Linat Tzedek society. He was an avid Zionist and in 1924 joined the “spies” from Radomsk, who went to tour Palestine. He came back full of positive impressions, and with a determination to liquidate his businesses, and make aliyah . But this did not come to be because of business and family complications.
