“The Synagogue” by Jerry Taylor
“The Synagogue” by Jerry Taylor
“I walked down the street that was known as the center of the Jewish community in Oradea, Romania. I was told that during World War II this community was dragged into the streets and killed. This small synagogue was a refuge for those trying to escape the "final solution" — eventually they were all eliminated. The synagogue is still empty. The saddest thing for me that day was looking around and seeing three steeples with a cross on top of each within walking distance of this house of worship.”
Jerry Taylor and his wife Sylvia have participated in many trips with Remember the Children. Over the years, Jerry’s skill of photography has been a gift as he observed and captured moments that added a depth of meaning and understanding. We are thankful for the generous donation of 12 of Jerry’s pieces to raise funds for orphan care and church planting in Romania and Tanzania. 11 of the 12 are framed between sheets of glass with open edging and attached wire. The dimensions for all pieces are 17’’ by 23’’ with the mat and frame.
Jerry is a retired Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist and a former educator and administrator in both public and private schools. He also taught Photography in Harford Community College's Continuing Education Program.
He currently shoots with a Nikon D850 and assorted Nikon lenses; he also uses the Nikon Coolpix P1000 super zoom.
