Jewish Survivor Lilli Cirillo | USC Shoah Foundation

Lilli is such a Firecracker! What an amazing story. Reminds me of my grandmother. Keep on keepin on!!

It has been an honour to have seen Lilli 's testimony . Thank you

This ladies' personality is so fabulous ~ her smile is contageous ~ sheer honesty and a good heart ~ so easy to listen to and admire for her strength~ God Bless your Soul!

I love this lady. Just love her. I'm so glad she gave her testimony.

I'm only 36 minutes in and I think this lady is delightful. I could listen to her stories about her parents for hours. It's nice to hear what their lives were like before the Holocaust. I had to add to my comment after I finished. I really enjoyed this interview, and I'm so glad she was able to record her family history and introduce most of her family. It's tragic that she lost her parents and her brother in the camp. It's hard to even comprehend what it would be like to be in a country where you don't know the language and have lost your entire immediate family. She is tough! But she did have a happy ending with a loving husband and a beautiful family. It's clear that her children love her very much and admire her courage and perseverance. Thank-you for preserving the history of the Holocaust survivors. This one was very good. I just looked her up and she lived to be 98 years old! That's amazing. I'm so glad that her family had her with them for a long time. What an amazing lady she was.

What a beautiful, precious, strong, woman. And, her wonderful family....you can feel the love. Blessed to hear this testimony. God bless.

I enjoyed Lilli sharing her testimony. What a good story teller. God Bless her mother and her spicy way,

Such a beautiful woman loved her way of being alive

What a great women and a great family. It's so nice they have this video to carry on throughout the years. It's already been years since making this video so I'm sure there is now another generation in her family that are learning to appreciate her story. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Thank you for sharing your life experience.

Thank you for sharing your story. It was very sweet and well told.

A delightful woman! Such a great story teller.

Thank you for your testimony.

Also she looks like the her father's mother. The painting looks like her. 💜

I could listen for hours! Wonderful woman. Rest in peace Lilli🙏

All of these stories are wonderful, giving us a real glimpse into the lives of people with lives and families. We are not a collective 6 million, we are Lily. We are Leon Leyson. We are Viktor Frankl. Lily makes us all proud.

I love her and Her parents!!!

We have found this great interview by chance. We (Jose and Ines) met Lilli and Vin Cirillo in 87 (SUNY at Stony Brook) and then we had the chance to visit then in Texas in 2006. They were terrific to us. We love them and we will always love them. We met part of the family. Specially Arthur but we lost contact when Vin passed away. No later news. We would appreciate any news about Lilli or Arthur

I’ve listened to hundreds of these and this one gives very good detail and insight into why the Jewish were disliked, what Hitler promised the Germans to further the hatred toward them and how a lot of Jewish people were aware of what could happen and how they tried to fight against this propaganda. What a wonderful woman, and I love her whole family!!

What a woman …. A true inspiration of good !
