Resolute to
Survive

As survivors of the Holocaust, these sisters have
endured some of the worst atrocities the world has ever
seen. Upon arriving at Auschwitz, Dolly and Suzy were
separated from the rest of their family, and forced to
cruel labor until sent from the camp as part of the death
march in August of 1945. With nothing left to cling to but
each other and their faith in God, they walked for days.

“There came a time when I did not have any more
strength to walk, and I said I have to sit down. My
sisters knew what would happen if I sat down.
They put their arms under my shoulders and
dragged me along until we arrived... I owe a lot
of my life to my sisters.”

Today, these women are uplifted by their growing
family, supported by their community, and inspired
by the goodwill and charity of others.

The power of sisterhood and
courageousness despite uncertainty
are at the heart of this story of strength.
Dolly and Suzy’s support of each other
and determination to survive sustained
them beyond the end of the war and as
they moved to America to start their
new lives, penniless yet hopeful.

Brilliance

their inner strength and to make a positive difference in this world.
I used a textured dark rhodium finish to symbolize grit and
resilience, and handset pavé stones for the perfect combination of
grit and glamour."
