She was born in a small village in Poland in 1923. She was the middle one of five children.

The Nazis occupied her village in 1939 and she and her sisters and brother were separated from her parents and youngest brother, who were sent to extermination camps.  

After the war Lushka and her sisters returned to Poland, where she was reunited with her surviving brother.

Everyone is welcome to come along to this evening’s event.
