We met Bronia Cimmerman Bronkesh and her daughter Sheryl a year and a half or so ago at the Phoenix Holocaust Survivor's Assocation. Sheryl put together an amazing web site, Before America, to reflect their trip back to Poland complete with videos and photos. Her mom hadn't returned in years. They were at the mass grave exactly 67 years to the day that her father and grandparents had been killed. Her husband, Sam Bronkesh, was a Polish Partisian, the site also includes his testimony and audio, with photos and drawings.
Bronia escaped to Russia from Sarny, Poland.
Here's one of their videos.

thank you sharing our web site with your readers. You didn't mention the important role that Hayden Houser played in this effort. Without Hayden, I would not have known how to use a video camera nor had the confidence to undertake the project of capturing our incredible trip to Poland and the Ukraine on video. Thank you so much for your valuable assistance.
