The word son is written small in b.l. corner. Narrative: The donor (Tobias) Aaron Rosengarten was born in the Bergen Belsen DP camp on 9 September, 1946. His parents were Esther Rosengarten (nee Weirbska) and Eliasz Rosengarten of Pilica and Tarnow, Poland respectively. Esther was born the 15th of September 1914 and Eliasz was born March 1st 1909. They met in the Bergen Belsen DP camp after the war and were married 25 November, 1945. Both were holocaust survivors. Esther was in the Zawiercie ghetto, and then the Neusalz Concentration Camp, a Gross-Rosen subcamp, from September 1942 to January 1945. In January 1945 she survived a death march to Flossenburg before being transferred to Bergen Belsen. She was liberated from Bergen Belsen in April 1945. She and her brother, also in Bergen Belsen, were the sole survivors in their family. Eliasz Rosengarten was also in Bergen Belsen by the end of the war. He was the sole survivor in his family. The Rosengartens immigrated to Montreal in April 1948 and had another son in 1949. Once in Montreal Eliasz Rosengarten was treated for tuberculosis contracted in the camps. He died of a lung cancer related to this tuberculosis many years later in 1977.
