According to some information my great-grandfather was a rabbi before the [Russian] Revolution [of 1917] [2]. He prayed a lot. They didn't attend the synagogue at the time I remember them, because they were sick people and it was difficult for them to climb to the six floor, where their apartment was located, so they prayed at home. They died during the blockade of Leningrad [3] in 1942.
