I’ve never wrote in a diary nor have a planned on it, but I feel that my experience should be shared with everyone. My name is Edith Goldberg. I was born 1928 in Teschenmoschel for most of my life which is a small village near Kaiserslautern, Germany. My family were farmers that lived in a small village of about 200 people. The village had a very small Jewish community… It used to be bigger, but over time people either had left or died. From what I remember I had a normal, happy childhood with my parents and sister. I remeber my family and I would be hay-making in the summer and tobogganing in the winter. My family always stuck to the Jewish traditions. Man, Those were the goodtimes. I also remembers a time that wasn’t all that good, which

    I moved from Detroit, MI to Ypsilanti, MI, for a better living. It was December 29, 2008. I had just given birth to my daughter. My daughter was born at 9:45p.m, weighing 5lbs and 3ounces. I named my daughter Saphira Parthenia Franks. Saphira died at 36 weeks, due to still born. The doctor told me” Sometimes this happens without a reason and you will be able to have more children”.

I was already going insane from the deaths of my father in November 2006 and my grandma in July 2008. Therefore, I was not able to cope with their three deaths at once.…

He was about his boys looking neat, being clean and well groomed as we grew from boys to men.

    Your diary made a prodigious impact on a numerous amount of people, including myself. It is ludicrous that the martinet, Adolf Hitler, would do something so truculent like that. It is a good thing that him and his followers were ostracized from society. The diary you kept when you were in hiding has affected a lot of people in different ways. First of all, it has informed many people about the life of a Jew in the depraved time of World War II. It shows how harsh it was for people if they wanted to stay alive in those times of apathy from the Nazi’s. It touches me how hard yall had to fight to stay alive in those cruel, cruel times. It is very blatant that this was a very depressing time for you, and all of the other Jews in the world during this time period. It wouldn’t be a great lifestyle to live cramped with another family in a small hideout.…
