In English class we have been reading an amazing novel written by Elie Wiesel. This book describes the tragic but true events that happened from 1939-1945. The Jew's were treated so badly that they did not have feelings anymore. When Elie's father died Elie felt a relief that he didn't have to care for him anymore. In Shlomo's memory we have written an eulogy. This is what Elie might have said.
" Shlomo, my father was a great and intelligent being. He was known as father, friend, husband and uncle. He was the reason i am standing here right now. Before the horrible nightmare we were never close, but as we moved to the ghettos i started relying on him and my mother more and more. When we were transported my only fear was not to lose him. He wanted to look strong for me, for us. He knew to ration our food, he knew that if he couldn't live then i could continue our legacy. His main goal for me to live. We were each others life line. The Holocaust made me realize how much i loved and needed my father. Even though he is not here physically he is in my heart. Always and forever. May he welcomed into the kingdom of God for staying faithful. "
