The typewritten paragraph below was translated from the original Lithuanian letter written to Kalman Aharoni by Dr. Vladas Burba, town physician and personal physician of Blume Gittel Aronowitz. A copy was sent to dear friend Mr. Saul Schiff who was also from Mazeikiai, with this handwritten message from Kalman: "Dear Saul, My hearth (sp.) is broken--- Kalman".
