A Tribute To Jews Who Suffered WWII

 In many of the small Germany villages we have visited there are tributes to the Jews who were removed from their homes and "deported".
This was found in a small alleyway

The names are placed on the plaque and remembered
In another village, markers are placed in front of the home.  this mother and daughter resided here

During the year, school children learn German history & polish the stones to keep their 
Memories alive
And so we remember with them
