You can chose one of this picks: Hans Sommer (1914- ) Günther Schwägermann (1915- ) Michael Karkoc (1919- ) Hubert Zafke (1920- ) Rudolf von Ribbentrop (1921- ) Algimantas Dailidé (1921- ) Gerhard Sommer (1921- ) Karl Münter (1922- ) Wilhelm Karl Friedriech Hoffmeister (c1923- ) Helma Kisser (1923?- ) Johann Robert Riss (1923- ) Alfred Stoerk (Stark/Stork) (1923- ) Aksel Andersen (1924- ) Helmut Oberlander (1924- ) Helmuth Leif Rasmussen or Rasboel (1924- ) No need to worry! In a few years Pope Benedict will be old enough to be on the game! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted June 24, 2019 Didn't we have a tet-a-tet about putting Holocaust survivors in this thread? Well whoever said not to was wrong (nowhere else to). Noémi Ban survived Nazis and then escaped Soviets before coming to St. Louis and teaching school for 17 years. Later in life, she became a respected author and lecturer about her family's ordeal during the Holocaust. Ms. Ban died June 7 after a short illness in Bellingham, Wash. She was 96. Born in 1922 in Hungary, Ms. Ban and her family were captured by invading Nazis in 1944 and shipped to the Auschwitz concentration camp — where her mother, grandmother, younger sister and baby brother were killed in the gas chambers. Ms. Ban, however, was picked as a laborer and sent to the Buchenwald camp. Later, while later being forced to march to the Bergen-Belsen camp, she was rescued by U.S. troops. She returned to Hungary and married Earnest Ban. The couple fled Hungary when the Soviets occupied the country in 1956, ending up in St. Louis in 1957. AMAZINGLY -- she has a Wiki page? smh..... I take everything back I said about Quon not getting an obit. Jesus.... smfh x100. SC 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he can get adopted by a responsible family and he will grow up to be a good boy? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
