My grandfather's name was Abraham Reich. He married a woman named Sarah, and they had two children - my mother and her sister, both in their early 70's now.

My grandfather was the only member of his family to have knowingly survived WWII - prior to the war he had 7 brothers and sisters, parents, and a close family. He had been given an opportunity to move to, what was then called Palestine. He was an accomplished electrician, and began his business in the Tel-Aviv area. Despite his many attempts to find some family members, he was not successful. He found some cousins in South America, made the journey, only to be turned away at the airport due to some supposed problem with his visa. He passed away without aver finding any family, though he did not give up on the possibility of their survival.

He lived in Germany, moved to Palestine/Israel, Johannesburg, South Africa, and then he went back to Israel. He became a renowned Cantor, making several records, and leading congregations in some very famous synagogues.

If anyone is able to help me with any information, I would be grateful. It would be a tremendous gift to our family to find family related to him.

He was a great man - full of compassion, intelligence, love and respect. He passed away many years ago, (30 years), long before his time.

I look forward to any assistance I may glean from any of you - as I am new to this. All replies will be welcome with appreciation and respect.

Thank you for reading this.
