"Childhood in Lackenbach" as told by Josef LOEFFLER to Yohanan LOEFFLER, translated from Hebrew.
"I had a happy childhood in
Lackenbach. All summer I was barefoot, climbing up fruit trees
and fences.
We used to play soccer in the street with a ball made of 'shmates' (rags) until it fell apart.
When the rich uncle came from Wien on the train to visit, he used to bring presents.
Once he brought a watermelon (which I never saw before).
He always brought me a baloon. By the time we walked home from the train station the baloon was gone.
We were religious. From age 3 I went to the Cheder in Lackenbach.
Later I went to the Jewish school (see school photos) in Lackenbach.
When I finished school, I was about 14, I went to a Talmud Tora in Wien.
I stayed all week with my uncle and came home for the weekend."
