Sam Kramer (Kremeris) was from
Pakruojis. You can see a beautiful picture of the
Kramer family carrying Torah Scrolls of the Jewish
community,
standing in front of the Pakruojis synagogue. Monty's
uncle Solly Furman presented a Torah
scroll to the Jewish community in 1927 when he and his wife and
their daughter Cynthia visited
their mother in Pakruojis. The Furman's already lived in South
Africa.
Sam Kramer, the doctor, died, but his younger brother
Monty, a pharmacist, is still alive and
lives in Israel.
The Torah Scroll was taken by the
family Kramer from Pakruojis
to South Africa, when they emigrated to this country before the
war. The same Sefer Torah was taken
by them when they emigrated
from South Africa to Israel. There the
Sefer
Torah was donated by the family Kramer to the IDF.
( the Israel Defence Forces).
