Memorials  Tombstone of Verislav Bernard Eliezer Feier in the Jewish Cemetery in Bogojevo, Serbia

Although there are only about twenty tombstones in the Jewish cemetery, on one of them there is an epitaph dedicated to a victim of World War II- captain Verislav Bernard (Eliezer) Feier/or Fayer; (3.1.1904 – 11.12.1944). There is only scant data about Feier. He was born on January 3, 1904, in Mol, to Bernat. He had two brothers and a sister Barbara. Eliezer married Klara née Adler. Klara was born in 1906 in the village of Bački Petrovo Selo. They had 6 children. Eliezer died in 1944 at the age of 40. It is interesting that Eliezer Feier's name is not mentioned in the list of Jewish participants of the Yugoslav Peoples' War of Liberation (Romano, Jaša. Jevreji Jugoslavije 1941-1945. Žrtve Genocida i učesnici Narodnoslobodilačkog rata. Belgrade: Jevrejski istorijski muzej saveza jevrejskih opština Jugoslavije, 1980). His wife Klara and two sons - Reuben and Shimshon, survived the Holocaust and immigrated to Israel. They erected this monument. On the website in memory of the fallen Israeli policemen is the name Reuben Robert Feier, Eliezer's eldest son, who was killed on 20 August 1987, at 54. The website also says that in 1944-1945, as a child, Reuven joined his father who fought with the partisans 

The Municipality of Odžaci maintains the monument.
