When she came to my daughter's class, I realized that the story would be lost if someone didn't write it down, so I took on the challenge.

I started with her childhood memories from Amsterdam, Westerbork, and Theresienstadt. Then I realized that there was much more to the story as her awareness, as a child, didn't include everything her parents were doing to save her. I started searching museum archives on the internet. When I found a document that was used during the trial of Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi behind the "Final Solution," that had my grandfather's name on it, I knew I had to search further.

My grandfather had a past I never knew that included saving many German Jewish families in the Netherlands, sabotage of metal the Nazis would use to build their airplanes, hidden money, and falsified papers. The more I dug into the questions, the more the story wrote itself. (less)

Quotes by K. Heidi Fishman (?)

“And I'd like you to always try to do good for the world - by speaking up when you see evil, and by behaving in a way that you know is right, no matter what others may be doing.”
