There are several articls about this heroic Sister Cecylia here:

The Telegraph (UK)

and

Miami Herald

I can't get enough of these stories. Even in the midst of incomprehensible horror, some people shine in their courage and humanity.

May God bless those who forget their own safety and stretch out their arms to save others.

She was born on the Great Feast of the Annunciation and buried on her Name Day—the Feast of St. Cecilia is November 22.

Framed with blessedness befitting one who was a blessing to so many.

A beautiful life truly lived. I posted about it on FR yetserday (https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3708140/posts) but the article you posted gives a better picture into her character.

“I can’t get enough of these stories. Even in the midst of incomprehensible horror, some people shine in their courage and humanity.”

Yes, and someone earlier posting about Russia and Germany made the point that the Poles have been in the “middle” and have suffered greatly under the collective “hands” of these two POS countries. The Poles are your basic decent, wonderful people, and here is a shining example. I just hope they can keep the “Merkel $hit” out of their country. Ditto for Putin, I fear he could be our next Hitler.

May God grant rest to her soul, and a Heavenly reward commensurate with her actions.

Just read where 70-80% of Italian Jews survived the war by being sheltered mainly by average Italians.
