Born in 1933 to Russian father Mikhail Kryuchkov and Jewish mother Disya Zalmanovna.[12]
Memories remain very vague. I remember hunger, cold and the screams of the Germans. And yet a fire: the Germans set fire to the fence of the ghetto during the retreat. Mom threw me over the fence into the snow, and then by some miracle she climbed over the burning boards herself. I was very afraid that I would lose my mother, I screamed loudly and cried. Mom and I returned home.
