Dear Hardy,
All kidding aside, these are two people who have worked tirelessly
since WWII to make the tragedy of Transnistria known to the world.
Baruch is a scholar, writer, retired docent at the Montreal Holocaust
Memorial Museum, still active in the Canadian Institute for Jewish Research
CIJR), Dr. Carmelly has written a book, "Shattered - 50 Years of Silence -
History and Voices of the Tragedy in Romania and Transnistria" (which won
many prestigious awards) and is currently working on another very important
project.
Transnistria was only in very recent years added to the list of infamous
concentration camps and only recently acknowledged by the Romanian
government. It is due to the efforts of people like this that this has
happened.
They definitely do merit being known as honorary members. Baruch is 91
years
old and doesn't use a computer so isn't on the Cz-list and Dr. Carmelly
is completely wrapped up in her writing - 16 hours a day. They have both
very kindly given me some material to eventually disseminate.
Merle
