    I’ll never forget it. My daughter is 7 years old, but when the time is right, i will make sure she learn this so she can pass it along to future generations. This suffering and human tragedy can’t never be forgotten. I’m not Jewish, but I Can’t look away and let’s this to horrible human experience be forgotten. God bless you Renee

    I could not sleep, and I'd been watching Renee Firestone's story earlier in the night. Again I watched. This is my favorite of all the Shoah stories. Renee is now 96. She lives, still, in Beverly Hills. God willing she makes it, in health, to her 100th and beyond. God bless you.

    Mrs Firestone is a beautiful, creatively-amazing woman. I’ve watched, and commented, on many of these video testimonies and Mrs Firestone’s cut me through the soul. It’s 2019 and I believe that she’s still involved with the Simon Wiesenthal Centre. Of course, her fashion designs are iconic. and I knew her name from her private label, but never knew this. I would love to hear more from her and see her portrait. Have you a link to see the portraits?

    P.S. Mrs Firestone, was your birth name Renee? I love this woman and wish I could have some magical way to ease her burden.
