- Sarah McLachlan, "I Will Remember You"
please remember these children by lighting a candle on your page for them.
"Full statistics for the tragic fate of children who died during the Holocaust will never be known. Some estimates range as high as 1.5 million murdered children. This figure includes more than 1.2 million Jewish children, tens of thousands of Gypsy children and thousands of institutionalized handicapped children who were murdered under Nazi rule in Germany and occupied Europe." - from Children and the Holocaust
what happened to the Jews during World War II is so sick and horrifying that it's almost impossible to believe that it actually happened. i try and i try but the horror that i come up with can't possibly be a tenth as bad as what they endured. please try to imagine what they went through. please. we have to remember. i know that i say that a lot, but it's true. if we don't remember what happened, what will we do when everybody else forgets?
i'm trying to find a list of children who died during WWII. i don't think i ever will find one, but i'm going to keep looking. the only children i found who died during the war are Anne Frank, Margot Frank and Peter van Pels. it's not much, but it's a start.
Please Remember
