Rose Girone, at 113, was believed to be the oldest living Holocaust survivor and a passionate advocate for sharing the narratives of survivors. Her passing marks a significant loss, as the number of survivors diminishes rapidly. Born in Poland and later moving to Germany, Girone's life was dramatically altered by the rise of Adolf Hitler. Following her husband's arrest by Nazis, Girone's experiences highlight the urgency for younger generations to learn about the Holocaust. The Claims Conference echoes this by urging continued education on these vital lessons to ensure they aren’t forgotten.
Rose Girone's passing underscores the urgency of sharing Holocaust stories, as the number of survivors dwindles, highlighting the importance of keeping their memories alive.
