The couple had three children and four grandchildren. Ota, the great storyteller from Block 31, wrote various books. One of them, The Painted Wall, fictionalized the lives of a series of people in the family camp, BIIb. Dita and Ota experienced life’s ups and downs together for fifty-five years. They never stopped loving and supporting each other. They shared books, an indestructible sense of humor, life in general. They grew old together. Only death could break the iron bond forged in the most terrible times anyone could experience.
