VIDEO: As earlier reported, Holocaust survivor Helena Sininsky – a recently retired Lakewood employee – shared her personal war stories with approximately 175 Lakewood High School students.
During the approximately 50 minute presentation, students sat in awe and were visibly moved by the stories of the Holocaust including the devastation that they suffered from losing their families, and their amazing stories of survival.

Thank you for posting this. I hope to watch the entire video tomorrow.
Helena thanks for sharing your story with our children may they never forget. this is such an important story to be told and I can’t think of anyone better then you. thank you!!!
My heart is breaking as I watch this video. Helena is a deer, kind lady and a very beloved friend. No one should endure this inhumanity to man. This was a time in the world that must NEVER happen AGAIN.
She is a true hero. She is a true survivor. She is a true person of integrity, love, and compassion. She has earned our love and respect.
May God continue to watch over you.
It is just beyond comprehension that Helena’s story was just repeated over and over again. I have pictures of 35 of my mother’s little nieces and nephews, gorgeous little kids, with pretty clothes, and bows in their hair, children whose mothers loved and adored them, and they all went up in Auschwitz smoke. Helena doesn’t even dwell on the daily atrocities, the sleeping conditions, the lice, the horrible indignities of religious girls being subjected to unheard of conditions. May G-d Avenge their Crimes and redeem his Children in the very near future.
