One lost shoe-One stolen life.

Shoe

There were several horrific events on March 27 1944

1,000 Jews were deported from Drancy, France, to Auschwitz.
2,000 Jews are murdered in Kovno Lithuania
40 Jewish policemen in Riga, Latvia, ghetto are shot by the Gestapo
Children’s Aktion-Nazis take all the Jewish children of Kovno,Lithuania.,and deport them

One Father carves the date of the taking of his daughter in the sole of the shoe she had lost when she was taken.

The daughter was only 2, her name was Hinda Cohen she was deported to Auschwitz where she was murdered.

One lost shoe-One stolen life

One lost shoe- One desperate Father

One lost shoe- One grieving mother-

One lost shoe- One future denied

One lost shoe

Hinda’s parents  Dov and Tzipporah Cohen both survived the Holocaust but forever there was a void that could never be filled, a void caused by hate and evil. I cannot imagine how they felt nor do I want to because it would dive me insane.

 

 

 

One response to “One lost shoe-One stolen life.”

  1. ON MARCH 27 1944 THE JEWS IN HUNGARY WERE BEING PUT INTO GHETTOS. THEY WERE EVENTUALLY ALL SENT TO AUSCHWITZ WHERE YISROEL YOSEF REMEMBERED ALL HIS LIFE THAT HIS MOTHER WAS SCREAMING SHE LEFT ONE SHOE ON THE TRAIN. HE WENT TO FIND IT AND WAS HIT BY THE KAPOS WHO WHISPERED TO HIM AT THE SAME TIME TO KEEP QUIET TO LIVE. THIS IS IN RESCUE OF YISROEL YOSEF NY ALICE MULLER AND DR TZIPPORAH BAT AMI. I CHECKED WITH AUSCHWITZ MEMORIAL MUSEUM STAFF AND THEY DO NOT HAVE ONE SHOE FROM 1944 THAT WOULD BELONG TO A WOMAN.

    FOR THOSE WHO WOULD RATHER READ ABOUT THESE PEOPLE BEFORE THE NAZI HOLOCAUST, YOU CAN READ ABOUT YISROEL YOSEF IN OUR AUNT TUBTISCHE. WHEN I GET SICKENED ABOUT THE MISSING SHOE I READ THIS BOOK FOR A WHILE.
