Oldest Known Holocaust Survivor Dies Aged 110
Alice Herz-Sommer, an accomplished pianist who survived the Nazi concentration camp at Terezin, dies at her London home.
The world's oldest known Holocaust survivor, Alice Herz-Sommer, has died in London at the age of 110.
Ms Herz-Sommer, whose life was the subject of the Oscar-nominated
documentary The Lady in Number 6, passed away after being admitted to
hospital on Friday."Alice Sommer passed away peacefully this morning (Sunday) with her family by her bedside," her grandson Ariel Sommer said.
"Much has been written about her, but to those of us who knew her best, she was our dear 'Gigi'.
"She loved us, laughed with us, and cherished music with us. She was an inspiration and our world will be significantly poorer without her by our side."
She and Stephan were freed in 1945 when the Soviet Red Army liberated the camp. She emigrated to Israel, before eventually settling in Britain.
Her husband died of typhus at Dachau, while her mother died at Treblinka.
An accomplished pianist, Ms Herz-Sommer and other musicians gave performances in the concentration camp in an attempt to raise the spirits of the inmates.
She once said that Beethoven was her religion and that music had saved her life. She also said she bore no grudges, and saw her life as a wonderful gift.
The film about her life has been nominated for best short documentary at the Academy Awards next Sunday.
"Even as her energy slowly diminished, her bright spirit never failed," the statement said.
"Her life force was so strong, we could never imagine her not being around. We can all learn so much from this most amazing woman."
An estimated 140,000 Jews were sent to Terezin and 33,430 died there.
About 88,000 were moved to Auschwitz and other death camps, where most of them were killed.

Saturday review
A very good Saturday saw over +140 profit primarily on the football. A shock result in the boxing saw Woodhouse beat Hamilton on a split decision which may produce some more rumblings going forward.
