Re: New and very interesting Swiss/Nazi censored post card

HPL2008 please translate if you like. Thanks
The card is addressed to a Mr. Loehrer of the Wesselsche Kunsthandlung [= Wessel's Art Dealership] at Rostock in the German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
It says:
"Lieber Täff*), kommst Du wohl
in absehbarer Zeit schwerlich in
die alte Heimat? Bist Du mit den
Deinen hoffe ich gesund? Im
Gedenken an schönere Zeiten
grüssen Dich herzlichst die
alten Freunde an der Oberirler[?]str. [= -strasse]
und hoffen trotz allem auf
Frieden und Wiedersehen!
Alles Liebe v. [= von] Luis u. [= und]
Fanny."
...meaning...:
"Dear Täff, you will hardly
be able to come to your old homeland
in the foreseeable future, right? Hopefully, you and
your family are in good health?
In the memory of better times,
the old friends from the Oberirler [?] Street
greet you whole-heartedly
and, despite everything, hope for
peace and us meeting again!
Much love from Luis and
Fanny."
*) Apparently, some nickname or perhaps a regional short/colloquial form of a first name.
