We have met with a witness of history, Mr. Kazimierz Sułkowski, Joanna’s son, to listen to the history of the help given by Mr. Kazimierz’s mother to people of Jewish descent.

– Praised Jesus Christ, would you give the seeds? In return, I have threads, buttons and needles today,” Joanna Sułkowska approached her neighbor from Limanowa.

– To be praised, Mrs. Sulkowska. Show me what you have there today. We’ll certainly make a deal,” smiled the housewife, wiping her hands into her apron. – You always have something interesting to bring – she added, and then she started to browse through the brought things. After a while she went out and brought a bundle of grain. – There is enough for bread. All right? – asked the woman. – All right – she agreed, then said goodbye and rushed home. There, as usual in such occasions, she set about baking fltbreds made of grain. – Mommy, are you going to go out again? – Her son asked sadly. – Yes, but as soon as I hand over this flatbreds to people who need them, I’ll come back right away – she promised. – And who needs it? – The boy wanted to know. – She replied, ” Those who are hungry, same people who give me all those things that I later exchange for grain.
