Et74

I was born in Kosice, Czechoslovakia and raised in Backov. Life was beautiful until 1942 when all Jews were ordered to evacuate to a ghetto camp in Zilina. My father was forced into a concentration camp and ultimately murdered in Auschwitz. We escaped to Zemianska Kerta and bought Christian identity papers. I became Margaret Sabor. We were eventually caught and taken to a work camp in Sered. Although I lost 80% of my family during the war, the biggest tragedy for me was the later loss of my son, Peter. I am grateful for the U.S. Veterans for liberating my country. I speak about the Holocaust at UCLA.
