Thanks for posting this. I’ve been to Yad Vashem, but of course, don’t know the stories of all the “righteous Gentiles”; I appreciate knowing about this woman.

'...her life began a long way from the barbed wire fences of Auschwitz - among the rolling hills of rural Dumfriesshire.' My Scottish ancestors hailed from that very county. I've sworn to get there one day, to step foot on that ancient ground.
