Death of Alter Feivushinski

By a record that probably names him, he probably died in the Holocaust.

A record that probably names him, from Pinkas Pruzhany and Surroundings (1983), says:

Held by The New York Public Library

עם ידידי אלתר פייבושינסקי עבדתי בקומנדו אחד בבירקנאו. הוא חלה ושכב בבית החולים, הוא גווע מיום ליום ואף־על־פי־כן היה מלא אופטימיות. הגורל קבע, שאראה מרחוק כיצד הוציאו אותו ערום ממיטתו, הניחוהו על משאית ולקחו אותו לקרמטוריום.

With my friend Alter Feibushinsky I worked in one kommando in Birkenau. He fell ill and lay in the hospital; he was wasting away from day to day, and nevertheless he was full of optimism. Fate decreed that I should see from afar how they took him naked out of his bed, laid him on a truck and took him to the crematorium.
