Letter from Welol-Wolf Flaksman to Sima Flaksman Lewak, 9-16-1978

16 September 1978 Tashkent

Dear sister Simeh and your family!

Half a year ago I have sent you a letter but never got any answer. Write what goes on with you; how is your health. What are you busy with? How are you living there? Write all in details.

Simeh, write me how Tzinien's and Mordche-Yosef's conditions are. What are they busy with? And how are they living? I want to meet all of you.

Simeh, I have already 3 grandchildren. The elder daughter has two sons, one 8 years old and the other is 5. And I have a Bokher1 of 15 years old, who is studding in the 8th grade.

Simeh, write me immediately, answer me I am interested to hear all about you.

Cordially regards to your family and Tzinies, Mordche-Yosef and Musha's family.
My brothers are sending their regards.
Be healthy, your brother Vova.

Forgive me for writing with mistakes I have already forgotten how to write in Yiddish.
