Dr. George Pikler with his wife Mrs. Elaine Pikler from Baltimore in USA visited city Rajec and Bioclimatic Park Drienova on 29. august 2018.
Dr. George M. Pikler is highly regarded doctor specilaized in oncology and hematology. He was born in 1942 in Equador. Today he lives and works in Baltimore, presenting his experience worldwide.
The intent of their visit was the genealogy of the Pikler family George is working on. I found email from George in my postbox in January. He has been interested in the city where the legacy of his ancestor coud be found. And he really found the tombstones of his ancestors in the Jewish cemetery in Rajec – tombstones of David and Charlotte Lipscher.
In the afternoon we spent great time in Bioclimatic Park Drienová meeting other friends, and tasting the homemade specialities prepared from our bio products.
Goodbyes were very emotional and we hope we meet soon.
