"In city there was Isaac Leikin, daddy [of] Ilya and Solomon, grandfather [of] Ira [Irina] Leikin.

Isaac Leikin was an engineer specializing in road construction. During WWII, when Leningrad was in siege, the "Road of life" was made on the ice of Ladoga lake. He was among those who organized it, and there he was killed…(The Road of Life was a life-saving road that had to be reconstructed each year according to precise calculations. It saved lives, but those who worked on it often died.)
