Letters: A Holocaust survivor’s uplifting story

Re “Among the oldest Holocaust survivors,” Obituary, Feb. 24

Thank you for reporting on the passing of Alice Herz-Sommer, one of the oldest Holocaust survivors.

I knew nothing about Herz-Sommer before seeing the Academy Award-nominated documentary,” The Lady in Number Six.”

I left the theater with tears in my eyes but with my heart inspired and uplifted by this remarkable woman. Despite circumstances that no human being should be forced to endure, her spirit still soared.

Herz-Sommer was and is an inspiration to all of us.
