Watching this in 2024. Love that this story had a beautiful ending ❤ so much love in this family! So happy for them that they have each other
Thank you for telling us about the terrible time you lived through. May your light shine on for ever. Thanks once again.
What a lovely lady. What a blessing that Erna wasn't robbed of those kind, smiling eyes.
What a beautiful, poised, elegant lady. I'm so glad she survived.
I learned much from this lovely woman.
Although i appreciate and will remember her testimony its the wonderful family she has created that will stay with me most. What a rich lady she was. She past away in 2016 i belive. RIP dear lady. .
I’m watching this 25 years after it was recorded and it has brought me to tears I’m heartbroken by this beautiful lady’s life during this terrible period in time may god bless her xx
I really teared up at the last interview with the whole family. It doesn't stop. May that legacy of emotion never lose it's perfume.
SOOOO BEAUTIFUL- the children are so thankful for their strong mom- brings me to tears.
Wonderful lady. Her story is so sad, she went through horrible experiences, but her strength gives hope that there were good, decent and generous people, who chose to risk their lives for strangers. Really amazing Thank you for sharing with us
People don't seem to understand the point of the these interviews. The person doing the interview is gathering specific information for posterity. Spelling is important. The details are important. These interviews were to help gather all the lost information about families, Jewish life etc. If you watch more than one, you see them asking the same questions, about parents, where they were born etc.
This is academic. This isn't Oprah.
They also ask questions we have the answers to - like when did the war start. They want this persons SPECIFIC experience. They are bearing witness to what they saw and lived through.
Thank you for your testimony.
Outstanding family ❤️🙏❤️
a special painful but an important testimony to her family and the world
I just watched her testimony on the Shoah. What an interesting story. Her emotions are all over the spectrum, which is good. I absolutely loved her story. I liked the part when she was introduced to the Czech man she forgot how to speak check.
Gosh I've watched many of these videos but I think this one is the best! It was not coincident, why all these good things happened to Erna, it was God wanting her to be alive, as well as all those others that survived the holocaust.
God wanted them all to live
Just a comment here ... an observation rather than a "fact" but after watching I am sure MORE than fifty of these interviews over the past month, I noticed that for example people who hailed from Poland mention repeatedly the vicious anti semitism of the Poles both BEFORE , DURING and ***AFTER*** (!) the holocaust. But those who came from the Czech part of Czechoslovakia appear unanimous in their firm conviction that anti semitism in the Czech people was virtually non existent. THEN you hear those who came from Slovakia and the difference is incredible as to the virulent anti semitism among them. I really wonder what do you think the difference was ? Education? The fact that the Czechs had a history of religious diversity? Their culture ? Same in France, it seems that in the Protestant areas of France the common PEOPLE did quite a bit to reject antisemitism and rescue the Jewish population whereas in other areas only a handful of religious orders did so. Has anyone ever done any studies on this??
Why is there practically no testimony from these women on their memories of SS Irma Greise who was
in charge of the Women"s camp in Birkenau ? Why didn't the interviewers ever ask them about this ?
Good question, as she was one of the worst. Actually, I think there was one woman who said her hair was always fixed nice, and something about her having a beautiful coat.
Too many details would confuse people
Some women were in Auschwitz-Birkenau and transported to a labor camp before Greise was there. Additionally, they may not have known her name.
But I have heard at least one woman mention Irma in her testimony.
My god this interviewer why cant these people SHUT up and let these people talk
Thank you for your comment. Very menschlich.
Another Jennifer in the world. :)
What is wrong with these interviewers?
I am always amazed at people commenting on the interviewers instead of the important content. Especially considering these interviews were done almost 30 years ago.
You are right it is irritating and machine like
So very annoying to hear the interviewer asking questions by the dozens.. PLEASE LET THE PERSON TELL HER STORY WITHOUT asking age of parents, her age, spelling everything..it's just so CRAZY. STOP 🛑
That was the point! She's gathering specific information for posterity. Spelling is important. The details are important. These interviews were to help gather all the lost information about families, Jewish life etc. This isn't Oprah.
שאלוהים יברך אותה
I hate interviewers voice, questioning questions Questioning Questioning...🤯
That ‘s her job. Being factual and structured.
You know Shabbir, in a lot of ways I agree with you , more though based on the WAY that various interviewers have conducted their interviews. But I find this one excellent. It is NOT merely a testimony it IS indeed an INTERVIEW and I am sure a major part of that is to draw out of the ones being interviewed various facts rather than just memories that will give posterity a much more indepth understanding of the nature of the Holocaust. But yeah, Some of these interviewers should be deeply ashamed of how wretchedly they 1.) conducted their interviews and 2.) How they treated the ones being interviewed.
These interviews were done almost 30 years ago. Maybe focus on the actual testimony. Just a thought.
What the he’ll else is she supposed to do? Lmao
Good grief you people are something else
