Reb is short for rabbi or respected person. He was rich, owned a store, bread, etc. He gave his gold to his son, Chaya’s brother, who buried it to keep it safe and when he was killed during WWII, all the gold was lost. This brother gave Chaya’s family 20 rubles to buy a house and kept everything else for himself.

Reb married Bluma. One child from this marriage was Chaya Woolfovna Assimova.
