Permission to print photo granted by Efraim Dimmer on 18 Mar 2015. This marker is on the location of the
old Dashev cemetery dating back about 250 years ago. All of the original gravestones were destroyed.
Efraim works for Ohale Tzadikim (Tents of the Righteous), which restores Jewish Cemeteries in Ukraine,
Europe and the Mideast. He says "On the plaque of the grave marker that we built is the name of a very
righteous rabbi, Shmuel Izik of Dashev, who was one of rebbe Nachman of Breslov's prime students."
Dashev is located 233 km (144.5 miles) southwest of Kiev.
Its map coordinates are 49° 00' north latitude and 29° 27' east longitude.
