This Yom HaShoah I am remembering Henoh Aleksanderowitz who was born and lived in Klobuck, Poland in 1936 and was murdered at Auschwitz in 1942 when he was six years old.
His grandmother Zelda, mother Frajda, five year old sister Jona Tova, and 3 year old brother Jeheskel were also killed at Auschwitz and Treblinka. His father Moshe was killed at Treblinka.
At least 54 members of his family were also killed. Please keep reading to learn more.

i think i've finished the family tree of the young boy i'm remembering for Yom HaShoah tomorrow evening.
Yellow Candle is only on the four big SMs so my reach with it here will be miniscule and few will notice much less care. but i've spent twelve days with the records his uncle, his mother's youngest brother, aged 14 when Poland was invaded, made for Yad vaShem and they're real for me at least.
may their memories be for a blessing.

i found the Pages of Testimony for the six year old boy whose name i've received for Yom HaShoah remembrances, along with those of his parents, his brother and sister, and so much of his mother's family as well. they were submitted by his uncle. the vastness of the loss is incomprehensible
Henoh Aleksanderowicz, of Klobuck in Poland.
Yom HaShoah is 17th April (27 Nisan in the Hebrew calendar). If you want to help remember someone through the #YellowCandle initiative, there's still time to buy a candle (£2 plus £2 shipping). They'll send a yarzheit candle and the name, age and place of death for a Jew murdered in the Shoah.

(And to forestall the usual complaint, there's an international HMD in Jan for all victims. 2nd Aug is the Romani remembrance day.)

Chichu was the daughter of Jechiel and Chaina Berkovits, and the sister of Ester, Shifra, Jenta, and Frimat, who were all murdered, and Jenny, who survived. #YellowCandle #YomHaShoah.
I am lighting this yellow candle in memory of Chichu Berkovits of Veliky Bockov, Czechoslovakia (now Velykyi Bychkiv, Ukraine), who was murdered in Auschwitz in 1944, aged 7. #YellowCandle @YellowCandleUK #YomHaShoah
