The Grevler ( Grevleris) family told by Rita Grevler Hillel, Israel:

Barmitzva of my father Asher , +1923

My father  mentioned that he had sneaked some chocolates before his barmitzva so his mom made him eat the whole box.   

My father’s  education seemed quite rich and he was able to read Hebrew prayers fluently and speak Yiddish fluently.

This is a photo from the cheder (Jewish schoolclass) of Rozalimas. My grandfather Ben Zion Grevler has his hands on two of his grandsons. The boy on the left is Aharon Diamond and the boy on the right is  Levi Abrashka , who was killed, trying to escape from the Nazis.

My father also recalled playing pranks and putting things in people's pockets before they went to the river for the Tashlich ceremony at Rosh Hashana. He talked about a fire in the town - He said there were beautiful forests. 

This is a picture from Rita's private collection. She doesn't know who is who on the picture. Was it a sportsteam or a group of people belonging to an organization?
