Watching movies rarely move me to tears, but “Anne Frank - The Whole Story” was one of those. This was the movie that showed what happened to Anne and Margot after they were discovered, through Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen where they perished.

I read “The Diary of a Young Girl” when I was 10.

That was almost a half century ago.

I remembered Miep Gies’s name from all that time.

That is how much of an impression it made on me!

May God rest her soul, she was a true hero.
