The following are examples of feedback we’ve received. Let us know if we can publicize your projectsor interests. We’ll see what we can do.


Feedback on “How Dark the Heavens”

“Thank you for sharing your story online. I am often amazed at the little touches of humanity that victims shared in their plight. I am also curious. How does someone like yourself who has seen men sink to such levels as the Nazis restore faith in their fellow humans after witnessing those events? ”

“Mr. Iwens,

I have been reading holocaust literature from the Internet fora while now. I am not Jewish, just a Christian that find the whole ordeal toobig to comprehend. I am married, and have two young sons with a third on theway. I cannot bear to think of my family ever going through what you wentthrough.

I just wanted to thank you for making your story available for usto read.”

 


Can You Help?

“I’ve started researching my mother’s history and found this a moving and special start. Her mother was Flora Wolfsohn, her sister Gerda Wolfsohn. They were taken from Beuthen, Germany, to Poland to Auschwitz quite early on, though my mother has no detail except she was advised of their death, like so many others, officially on April 10, 1945. I would like to make contact with other families who may have had loved ones taken from Beuthen.”

Withkind regards,

Michele, ogilvy30@itl.net

Grad Student Needs Help

“I am a 2nd Year Master’s graduate student in architecture. I am currently looking for any information or people to use as a sounding board for ideas related to my thesis. My thesis deals with how architecture can evoke or create memories through the memorial as a building type. Anyone with suggestions please contact me at:” ricky69@freenet.fsu.edu

Sincerely
Richard Kremer

How Dark the Heavens by Sidney Iwens
Lubaczow Partisans

Keep Yelling!
A Polish Partisan Testimony

"He was at last able to summons the painful memories of those tragic events he lived through from 1939 to the end of 1944 — the day he finally exclaimed ‘I am free!’. ."

Jacques Lipetz and the story related to the Jewish Refugee Committee of Manila (JRC)

"The Jewish colony in Manila was a mixture of German Jews who hailed largely from Breslau and Frankfurt, a variety of other European Jews from Eastern Europe mainly, a number of Sephards from Lebanon, Syria and Iraq and us."
