Tribute participant Date February 12, 2004 03:19 PM	With pain and joy we visit this special place. Thank you for the opportunity to share it with other survivors and their families. [Inscription on Scroll of Remembrance, USHMM, November 2, 2003]
Amy Sabatini Date February 12, 2004 01:36 PM	I am a 6th grade social studies teacher and have taught the Holocaust for 4 years (since I've been teaching). After reading about the Holocaust in college, which was the first time I ever learned about it, I vowed to ALWAYS teach my students about it. God bless all of the survivors and may He hold those who perished in the palm of His hand. I WILL pass it on!
Tribute participant Date January 13, 2004 02:36 PM	In loving memory and tribute to my beloved parents -- For teaching me to trust and to love despite the darkness they experienced. The horrors of the Holocaust become increasingly incomprehensible, but the heroism and resilience are eternally inspiring. [Inscription on Scroll of Remembrance, USHMM, November 2, 2003]
Tribute participant Date January 13, 2004 02:35 PM	This Tribute is an honor to attend because it passes on from my parents' generation, who are the survivors, the concrete evidence for our children and their children to see. I believe the Museum concretely makes us all witnesses so that what happened "over there" can never be forgotten. I come here in memory of my beloved parents -- and for the future of my children -- May they never forget what happened to their grandparents and the millions of others.

Tribute participant Date January 13, 2004 02:21 PM	Thank you Survivors and the ones who contributed to this Tribute, thanks for helping the world to never forget, because we are all witnesses. [Inscription on Scroll of Remembrance, USHMM, November 2, 2003]
Tribute participant Date January 13, 2004 02:20 PM	I am a survivor of Auschwitz and Buchenwald and I am most grateful to this Museum for letting the world know of the darkness that befell the Jews of Europe during World War II. Thank you. [Inscription on Scroll of Remembrance, USHMM, November 2, 2003]
Tribute participant Date January 13, 2004 07:31 AM	I am very sad to be here in memory of all my relatives who have died in the camps, but extremely proud to be here for my surviving relatives. May the memories, stories, will to live and suffering always be preserved. This weekend has been a wonderful, moving, amazing experience for my family who attended. I hope that my children never forget this experience. [Inscription on Scroll of Remembrance, USHMM, November 2, 2003]
