The Holocaust Remembrance Day - One story



This photo, taken in 1933, shows Chava Dochleuter (forefront) together with Gizella Bond (middle) on a kayak on the River Sola which runs through the town of Oswiecim (Auschwitz).

The young girl sitting in the back of the kayak remains unidentified.

Chava and Gizella both perished during the war.

A Page of Testimony submitted to Yad Vashem in 1957 in memory of Gizella tells us that she was born in 1914, was a housewife and was killed in 1944 when she was 30 years old.
