Reb Yankel and Baila Lax Paris, 1930s When visiting Paris, France, the Previous Rebbe stayed at the home of Reb Yankel and Baila Lax in the 1930’s. The Rebbe used to visit the Previous Rebbe there. Berel Lax, their twenty years old son, recalls some of his memories of the Previous Rebbe and his son-in-law, the Rebbe, there.
Based on first-person testimony from the oral history project, My Encounter with the Rebbe, The Early Years is a documentary series that sheds unprecedented light on the Rebbe and Rebbetzin’s life in Russia and Europe from the Rebbe’s birth in 1902 until he arrived in the US in 1941.
Early Years Volume III focuses on the Rebbe and Rebbetzin’s last years in Paris from 1938 through 1940.

My revered father passed away on 11 cheshvan last year. It is very moving to see and hear him talking about the Rebbe.
