Born on November 25, 1926 in Warsaw, Poland. Died December 25, 2017, Stockholm.

I survived nine different concentration camps and three death marches. I am the only survivor of my family.

Our generation, those who survived, become fewer and fewer. I am thinking about my dedicated friends who still work hard and tell their stories in schools. My dream and wish is that the second and third generations take over our mission and tell for the coming generations. The Holocaust should not be forgotten. They should tell what their grandmother or uncle have told them. I would also like to ask the Jewish youth to read and know about the Holocaust and forward the information. It is our duty. I truly hope that my dream is realized.
