With a boiling and torn heart we announce that there has been taken from us the crown of our head, my husband, our dear father and brother
[Aharon]-Meir son of Yosef-Velvel Apelbaum, of blessed memory.
He died on Wednesday, 7 Iyar 5696, in his 67th year, and was buried on Thursday, 8 Iyar (30 April 1936).
Those in sorrow and grief: his wife, his sons, his daughters, sisters (here), brothers (America), in the absence of his sons in Russia and Chile.
