irena sendler: rest in peace and thank you.

She saved our past,present and future.  She did so at great personal risk and willIrena_sunflowers be remembered as an angel always. Irena Sendler was a woman who did the right thing simply because it was the right thing, not the easy thing and 2500 children survived to have children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren because of that.

What has always moved me about her story is her efforts to preserve the true names of the children she saved,and her commitment to seeing them united with Jewish family after the war.  Of course, most of their families were executed in the camps.

May her memory be for a blessing.
