In the meantime, we felt the lack of a rabbinical leader in Aix-les-Bains. And so when we heard of a Rabbi Rubinstein in nearby Lyon, I went with Dr. [Hillel] SeidmanHillel Seidman is the author of: Du fond de l'abîme, Journal du ghetto de Varsovie, Plon: Paris, 1998. to visit him. When we entered Rabbi Rubinstein's home, his wife greeted us. When I told her my name and that I came from Warsaw, she said to me, "Wait a moment, please", and stepped out. A minute later, she returned and showed me to Rabbi Rubinstein's room.
