My beloved, dearest, sweet child, Ettiya, my soul. My dear child, I cannot describe to you how much pleasure your dear letter brought to me. But I am alone and I fear that God does not find me worthy enough to come to the wedding. As you know, I have no means to be with you my dear children. I always hoped dear children that I would be able to be at your wedding because you were always my best, and my most loved child. But dear, what can I do?.... and during the night I lie in bed, my eyes full of tears, my dear child. You think that I have forgotten you... I didn't forget you brecause you are my best child and my dearest child. My dear child, my heart longs for you, but my strength is dwindling bitterly.
...Dear child, this letter is not written with ink but with tears, yes, and I hope that God gives me the strength to withstand it.... I conclude my writing with Mazel tov. I send you greetings and kisses many thousands of times from me, your dear and unforgettable father who is hoping to see you at least once more. Chaim Landes

On the occasion of her wedding, he also calligraphied a poem called "Gluck Auf". The translations is:
Good luck!
Happiness wreathe your days,
be joyful and cheerful in your mind.
Without pain and without plague
your most beautiful life shall be.
May peace dwell in your breast,
far from any suffering on earth.
Live in undisturbed joy!
Walk happily and contentedly
long through life here.
May joy be your lot in this world,
Blessings may bloom around you.
Wishing the happiness fulfillment
of your faithful father,
Chaim Landez Buczacz.
