Allow everyone to be and believe in what they want to believe in. Live together in peace." Born: 1926, Hungary. Sally was born in Hungary. In the first few years of the war she and her family were imprisoned in the Lodz ghetto, until they were taken to Auschwitz. On April, 14th 1945 she was released while being slaved in an ammunition factory. Despite the pain she was determined to rise again. Sally married her husband, who was a Holocaust survivor as well.
