By JNS Holocaust survivor Charlotte Roth, 96, finalized her immigration to Israel on Wednesday in Tel Aviv, nearly eight decades after being liberated from Nazi captivity. Born in Czechoslovakia, Roth survived Auschwitz and a death march after being deported with her family in 1944. She later rebuilt her life in a Displaced Persons camp, married and immigrated to the United States before raising four children in Ohio. Accompanied by five generations of descendants, Roth completed her immigration process with the help of Nefesh B’Nefesh, the Population and Immigration Authority, and several Jewish organizations. “Walking these streets with five generations of my family fills my heart with deep joy and strength,” said Roth. Rabbi Yehoshua Fass, co-founder of Nefesh B’Nefesh, called Roth’s story “a testament to the extraordinary resilience of the Jewish spirit.” Her family now includes nine grandchildren, 26 great-grandchildren and 11 great-great-grandchildren, many of whom live in Israel.
