    What a wonderful, genteel and brave LADY. I am so sorry she has left us.........she puts todays world to shame.
  • @bpekim1
    She is so intelligent and precise about her experiences. She can explain her experience in such vivid detail even from when she was four years old. I think it comes from being well loved and well educated by her parents.
  • So very sorry for your loss. Such a wonderful woman. May she Rest In Peace. Hugs and prayers for you, your family and friends.
  • @gyorgyakos9618
    A wonderful wise and intelligent lady. Her testimony is European (World) history at its best. Names like Rosa Luxemburg, Albert Einstein or Karl Radek just fly in the air. I wish I could have met her personally. For those who are interested further, here is the Wikipedia page on Erich Mühsam who was tortured and murdered in Dachau: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erich_M%C3%BChsam, on Gertrud Feiertag (Jüdisches Kinderheim in Caputh), was murdered in Auschwitz: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gertrud_Feiertag and on Ernst von Harnack (he saved the life of Betzi' s mother among others), who was executed in 1944: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernst_von_Harnack

    Out of the many interviews I've listened to she is the first one to discuss how her family members followed communism & she truthfully likened it to having the role in their lives as a religion.
