It is just too sad that Mr. Schneller did not live to see Georgi Susskind be bar mitzvahed, which lad and whose family he came to know so well, and dearly loved. 
He would want me to give this curt in; he personally gave one years ago, to the 8th and MounShul, and it is in use in Rabbi Lesser's room now. 
I only hope as time goes on, there will be some other way in which I can show what was in his heart, and is in mine, to such a grand little group of valiant true blue citizens as you all are, and deserving the greatest credit for trying to carry on under such adverse conditions. 
Respectfully, Le44,4_ A 
Louise A. Schneller.
