It was said by Julian Schwartz that one son had returned during the Evacuation.

At the age of about fourteen years, A., sympathetic, wise, more detail? and fit for the stage. He had, as a child, co-acted in several spectacles of Yiddish troupes, had alone organized a gerotenem children's spectacle with formerly deported children. He left several excellent deportation songs, which the children used to sing. In 1947 he, with a group of children, traveled to Israel.
