   נפטר ביום ח’ סיון
   שנת תשכ”ב לפ”ק

   Rabbi Samuel Katz, my paternal grandfather, Rebbetzin, Berta Breindel Katz returned to Europe in hopes of getting out the rest of the family and was not successful. She and her family was murdered in Auschwitz Death Camp, Monday, May 29th, 1944, the second day of Shavous. Her brother, Rabbi Aaron Zimetbaum, was the only survivor. Originally, Rabbi Samuel Katz had seven children of which 4 passed on early in life pre World War Two. Rabbi Katz emigrated 1937 with his Rebbetzin and three remaining sons, Rabbis’ Benjamin, Solomon and Dr. Henry Katz. Rabbi Samuel Katz was niftar 18 years and 1 day after his Rebbetzin. He never remarried.
