Television Interview with the author.
This book is tribute to Henri and Suzanne Ribouleau,
my loving second parents, Righteous among the
nations,
and to their sons René and Marcel who
by their courage and devotion saved
my life and my sister's life.
We shall forever keep their memories alive
and those of my father and mother, Srul and Chana
the twenty members of my family, uncles
aunts and cousins and the six million Jews
and non-Jews who were massacred
according to the diabolical plan
of the Nazis' "Final solution."
