[Cz-L] Popovici survivors

POPOVICI SURVIVORS , WHO STILL REMEMBER , HOW MANY ?



   Today we are out for speculations . How many Jews saved by Popovici

     are still around ?

  Assuming to what we know , the number of saved was roughly 20,000 in 1941=
.

  Let us split this number into 10 age groups at 2000 persons per group.

    Each group of a 7 year age span.

    The first age group who was 0-7 years old we can remove, they were too=
 
small to remember or tell us anything.

     Age groups 3-10 were from 21 – 70 years of age at that time so that=
 
today they must be 90 to 139 years of age by now and therefore almost
extinct .

     Those still alive of this age group don’t remember very much or ve=
ry
well.

   This leaves age group 2 and 3 , those who were from 7 to 21 years old at=
 
that time.

    They are now from 75 to 89 years old.

     At 2000 heads per group that sums up to 4000 survivors.

       Natural death , sickness , accidents, wars must have taken their tol=
l
too.

    During 70 years an estimate of 1000( or so) didn’t make it .

       This leaves some 3000 living Popovici survivors.

                 People who can still remember .

                       If they don’t have Alzheimer.

              Genuine 3000 Popovici survivors.

            How much longer ? Your can guess .

                 What will be left then ?

        The Popovici plate at Yad Vashem and the Herrengasse plate of 2008.

           If we , hopefully , succeed.

           And a story of human infamy .
