Among the victims of the Struma shipwreck I would like to mention also  Baruch (Burah) Schechter , his wife’s name was Bluma and their son’s was Eugen Iancu. Baruch was Mina Schechter’s brother and my aunt’s Coca Waissman’s mother (her maiden name was Herskovici  and her husband , the physician Dr. Dan Waissman is my mother’s Erna’s natural cousin).

Baruch was 44 and his wife was 42, both were head accountants by  profession and they were employed by  petroleum companies; the husband was working with the Romanian Distributia Company, his wife was employed by the Romanian-American Astra Romana petroleum company.
