I’m grateful to share the remarkable story told by my wife Dr Bea Lewkowicz, featuring my mother in law Dr Gertrud Friedmann on the 80th anniversary of the Wetzler-Vrba escape.

[Dr Bea Lewkowicz @bea_lewkowicz]

On the 7th of April 1944, 80 years ago, Alfred Wetzler and Rudi Vrba went into their hiding place in #auschwitzbirkenau. Three days later they escaped and managed to get to #Zilina, where my mother, Dr Gertrud Friedmann, then 15, brought them food. Here she recalls what happened.

Powerful and moving, @bea_lewkowicz reading testimony from her groundbreaking study

[Dr Bea Lewkowicz @bea_lewkowicz]

Today we mark the 81st anniversary of the first deportation of the Jews from Thessaloniki to Auschwitz. I am standing at the old train station from where the train left and read an extract from my interview with Palomba Alaluf (Florentin) in her memory.

A poignant reminder of #FragilityOfFreedom for #HMD2024

[Dr Bea Lewkowicz @bea_lewkowicz]

I recently found two bank deposit books, which each had a receipt inside. The receipt shows that my mother’s aunts, two young Jewish women from #Kezmarok in Slovakia, had to pay for their deportation to Auschwitz and Lublin. On this #HMD2024 I remember Berta and Gisela Winter.
