Eva Friedner shares the history of her parents who survived the death camps of the Holocaust, found one another, and made a new life in America. With slides, artifacts and personal memories, Eva shares how the two parallel stories of her mother and father merge into one.
Eva always knew that passing on the stories of Holocaust victims and survivors was of primary importance for future generations, and she has been making presentations to student and adult groups for many years.
NEVER FORGET was and is a motto of survivors and their second and third generations that, today, we must bring to the fore, lest history repeats itself.
