I recently read a post that one of you wrote or perhaps re-blogged that talked about one of the bravest people I’ve ever read about. As young woman, she risked death and torture daily to save about 2500 children and babies from the Nazi hate and killing machine. That story planted a seed in me that has grown ever since. I’d like to research her life and write a poem and/or song about her, but I don’t recall who had posted that wonderful story. If you know, please tell me in the comments below.
The world should build monuments to people like her, and I’d like to honor her in ways that call to me.
Thank you!
Russ









I googled Russ and found that there was a woman named Irena Sendler…who rescued 2500 children…you might want to check out information there..She was supposedly up for a Nobel Peace prize but was not chosen….Diane
Thank you, Diane. That sounds like the one. I’ll bet a politician beat her out for the Nobel Peace Prize. If so, that would sadden me on a number of levels, but it wouldn’t surprise me.
I appreciate your help.
Russ
Diane beat me to it. Go for it Russ!
Thank you, Elyse. I appreciate your willingness to provide this info to me and for your support in general.
