My neighbor .... A great woman!!!!!!

[@katelinbouchard4110]

Do you talk to Julia ?

[@katelinbouchard4110]

Love Jack and Thea. I had the honor of caring for her husband and meeting such a wonderful and positive lady as she is.

[@jankench9622]

Lovely lady, brave testemony. So glad she was able to give us such a detailed story that should teach us all.

[@vanessa26]

I have watched a good few of these and this is the best interviewer so far. Many, irrelevant of age of age, struggle with the tone of the interview. This interviewer was balanced, supportive, respectful but not distant. Well done all involved.

What lovely people, Thea and Jack. It was an honor to know them through their equally lovely daughter and family. I once asked how two people who had suffered and witnessed so much at the hands of other people could have such a wonderful sparkle and happy, loving nature. Their daughter told me her parents said they’d seen the worst of people, but they’d also seen the very best of people. The way they decided to live their lives was truly inspiring. May their memories be eternal.

Her beautiful smile belies the horror she went through.

[@ritamanning467]

What a sweet woman! Her beauty and positive attitude shine through. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences!

[@tammikit5310]

What a wonderful woman. I wish I could have met her. Not sure if she's still alive but if she is, may God bless you.

[@sallysampson628]

I am so sorry this could have happened and I feel such anger that anyone says it didn’t happen. We all must never forget or allow it to happen again.

[@dawnemerson3604]

Thank you for your testimony you are so hope inspired. I won't forget

[@jeanthompson8973]

Thea and Jack are two very warm, sweet people I have just met. I appreciate Thea's generosity in sharing her experience. I am very moved. Thank you, Thea!

[@sibert1974]

Beautiful articulate lady and the interviewer is one of the best.

[@michaelrwhelan2669]

I agree. She’s a marvel, a tower of strength, cleverness, and intelligence. How proud her family must be! This testimony is a gift to the whole world.

[@annaover60]

what a beautiful sweet woman and so sorry this happened

[@JaimeMesChiens]

Mrs Rumstein did such a great narrative. She experienced so much horror. I would like to hear her husband’s story, too. I hear they named their daughter Julia. That’s probably after her father, Julius.

[@ginacoghlan217]

Beautiful woman I can’t imagine what she went through. People must never forget these horrors so they are never repeated

[@AnneHarratt-mj4gj]

God bless her and her family

[@joziemolody3592]

Really makes me sad to hear her say that in the beginning, they thought the Germans were just going after the Poles, as if that was somehow ok. A generous woman to give her testimony.

[@PatientZiro]

At 16:40 she obviously speak about Polish Jews or German Jews

[@qubcio11games47]

@@PatientZiro she speaks about Polish people in general...

[@heathermoore-simmons4544]

Clearly she was hoping to live. I would be careful judging testimony from the comfort of home.

[@Kate-fr7qc]

A beautiful personality, like a shining jewel

[@francineverheyden9875]

Geez, the sound on most of these is not good, I can barely hear them.
