  • A card from the calendar - Stefania Parczyńska-Tomczała

– What is it Mrs Parchinska, visitors you have? – the postman wanted to know. – No, what guests. My sister and her daughter are here, so I won’t throw them out,” Stefania answered calmly. In reality, however, she had no relationship with Ida Gliksztajn and her six-year-old daughter. One day, Stefania’s cousin, Roman Postowicz, brought the Jewish girls who had escaped from the ghetto to her. He produced Aryan identity papers for them, but he himself – wanted by the Germans – could no longer shelter them. At Stefania’s they lived to see the end of the repression.
