[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 681643, member: 77"] You were lucky to have had and known grandparents. My grandparents were all murdered by the Nazis and I was born to a world without any grandparents. So many of my family members were murdered. I always knew that I would have very many children, and I have eight, and I have over 30 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. And that is my revenge on Hitler! I did go to Germany once. The municipality of Hamburg published my grandmother's letters -- she was there until the end of 1942 when she was deported, but by a miracle her letters to her two children were preserved. We three sisters went because they put on a sort of "book launch" in her memory. I was prepared to feel awful to be there, but to my great surprise I loved the city of Hamburg, and to my even greater surprise I felt really at home there. It was so strange. My father got to England because some cousins there guaranteed for him that he would not be a burden on the British economy (!). My mother got a permit to enter England as a domestic servant. They were lucky. Nuff said. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
