and her father’s moral courage at a time when most had lost theirs
had to fulfill the dying wish of a Hungarian Christian woman
he reached out to the Chabad rabbi in Budapest
He was holding the proceeds of the sale of two properties intended for Hungary’s Jews
She had inherited her parents’ home and her aunt’s home in Mezőkövesd
and wanted to see the profits benefit the Jews of her country
Bill Rubinstein had owned apartment buildings in her childhood town
and Magda and her husband were the superintendents in one of them
and treated her father with kindness and respect
Rubinstein knew the dark history of the Hungarians who collaborated with the Germans to exterminate Hungarian Jewry
His father was among the able-bodied men who had been shipped off to forced-labor camps by the Hungarians in 1944
“I do not think of Hungary as my country,” he told her
recalling his visit there in 1972 when “there was almost nothing going on Jewishly
and communism looked like it would last forever
When he visited Mezőkövesd—where he and Magda both had roots
a manila envelope landed on Rubinstein’s desk
In it were two official title certificates from the Mezőkövesd land office
and soon got buried under a growing pile of more urgent matters
Three years later Magda wrote him a letter reminding him about the properties
By then, Magda had been diagnosed with lung cancer and was preoccupied with the homes
Rubinstein visited her in her Toronto home
But he wondered at the insistence of this dying Christian woman to see her money go to a Jewish cause
Magda recalled the government restrictions on the local Jews during the Holocaust years
Her father ignored the laws and continued his contact with Jews
causing her own family no small measure of trouble
Magda’s mother became furious with her father
berating him for destroying their family while befriending the Jews
“They are people just like us.” And the little girl made a pledge
promising that when she grows up and inherits the family home
she will “give it to the Jews.”
In late 2013 the properties were sold and the money was transferred to a trust fund
Rubinstein then reached out to Rabbi Shlomo Köves
the Chabad-Lubavitch Executive Rabbi of EMIH Unified Hungarian Jewish Congregation
Koves suggested that the funds go to the renovations of Budapest’s oldest standing synagogue
converted into a television studio after WWII
was returned to the Jewish community in 2010 and still much in need of repair
and could not understand why Budapest’s synagogue would warrant renovations
“To see now that the Jewish community is assertive and proud is astonishing,” he told lubavitch.com
Rubinstein would have loved to see the money go to the Jewish community in Mezőkövesd
“It once upon a time had a nice Jewish community
but tragically that does not exist anymore,” he says
“If you want to do something for the Jewish community
Rabbi Koves confirms that there are no Jews left in Mezőkövesd
“In general the Jews all fled from cities and towns across Hungary after WWII
there are almost no Jews in the suburbs outside of Budapest.”
During an April 2014 visit to the Obuda Synagogue
Rubinstein met a young Jewish mother studying Judaism and sending her child to the Chabad preschool
The woman told him of the recent Jewish revival among the young generation
and expressed gratitude to Chabad of Budapest
“It is very touching to see this happening once again in Hungary,” he told lubavitch.com
Rabbi Koves hopes that as the local community learns about Magda
a Christian child from Hungary who stood up for the Jews in her town
and be inspired that even a small child can stand up for the truth and for what is right.”
but a plaque in the Budapest synagogue memorializes her: “In loving memory of Marton Lazar
a rare voice of righteousness in a world turned evil

Megszületett a klubok közötti megállapodás: a 26 éves labdarúgó a Mezőkövesd Zsóry FC új szerzeménye
A 26 éves rutinos támadó eddigi pályafutását Zalaegerszegen töltötte
ahol a korosztályos csapatok után a 2012-2013-as szezonban mutatkozott be a felnőttek között a Merkantil Bank Ligában
Az első felnőtt idényében 13 mérkőzésen kapott lehetőséget és rögtön a debütálása emlékezetesre sikerült
ugyanis gólt szerzett a Gyirmót elleni 2-2-es döntetlennel zárult mérkőzésen
A következő idényben már alapembernek számított
hiszen 26 meccsen játszott és két gólt lőtt
a 2014-2015-ös pedig 28 találkozón 8 alkalommal volt eredményes
majd a 2016-2017-es idényben 35 meccsen 9 gólig jutott
A következő szezonban 35 találkozón 11 találat szerepelt a neve mellett
míg a 2018-2019-es aranyéremmel és élvonalba jutással záruló évben 15 góllal zárt 29 találkozón
Az elmúlt két és fél évben az élvonalban 60 mérkőzésen játszott és összesen 8 találatig jutott
Babati Benjaminnal két és fél éves szerződést kötött klubunk
