Tag #154293 - Interview #94611 (Natan Shapiro)

My mother lived unmarried for few years and then she married a widower 20 years older than herself. She met him through matchmakers, which was customary for Jews. Her husband, Isaac Shapiro, was my father. At her second wedding my mother also stood under the chuppah in Narodichi. My mother’s relatives welcomed Isaac into the family and then the newlyweds left for the village of Didkovichi where my father came from.
