Her family moved to Hamburg, Germany, when she was 6, she said in a filmed interview in 1996 with the USC Shoah Foundation. <\/p>\n<p>When asked by the interviewer if she had any particular career plans before Hitler, she said: &#8220;Hitler came in 1933 and then it was over for everybody.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Girone was one of about 245,000 survivors still living across more than 90 countries, according to a study released by the Claims Conference last year. Their numbers are quickly dwindling, as most are very old and often of frail health, with a median age of 86.  <\/p>\n<p>Six million European Jews and people from other minorities were killed by the Nazis and their collaborators during the Holocaust. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This passing reminds us of the urgency of sharing the lessons of the Holocaust while we still have first-hand witnesses with us,&#8221; Schneider said. &#8220;The Holocaust is slipping from memory to history, and its lessons are too important, especially in today&#8217;s world, to be forgotten.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Girone married Julius Mannheim in 1937 through an arranged marriage. <\/p>\n<p>She was 9 months pregnant and living in Breslau, which is now Wroclaw, Poland, when Nazis arrived to take Mannheim to the Buchenwald concentration camp. Their family had two cars, so she asked her husband to leave his keys. <\/p>\n<p>She said she remembers one Nazi saying: &#8220;Take that woman also.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>The other Nazi responded: &#8220;She&#8217;s pregnant, leave her alone.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>The next morning, her father-in-law was also taken and she was left alone with their housekeeper. <\/p>\n<p>After her daughter, Reha, was born in 1938, Girone was able to get Chinese visas from relatives in London and secure her husband&#8217;s release. <\/p>\n<p>In Genoa, Italy, when Reha was only 6 months old, they boarded a ship to Japan-occupied Shanghai with little more than clothing and some linens. <\/p>\n<p>Her husband first made money through buying and selling secondhand goods. He saved up to buy a car and started a taxi business, while Girone knitted and sold sweaters. <\/p>\n<p>But in 1941, Jewish refugees were rounded up into a ghetto. The family of three was forced to cram into a bathroom in a house while roaches and bed bugs crawled through their belongings. <\/p>\n<p>Her father-in-law came just before World War II started but became sick and died. They had to wait in line for food and lived under the rule of a ruthless Japanese man who called himself &#8220;King of the Jews.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They did really horrible things to people,&#8221; Girone said of the Japanese military trucks that patrolled the streets. &#8220;One of our friends got killed because he wouldn&#8217;t move fast enough.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Information about the war in Europe only circulated in the form of rumors, as British radios were not allowed.  <\/p>\n<p>When the war was over, they began receiving mail from Girone&#8217;s mother, grandmother and other relatives in the U.S. With their help, they boarded a ship to San Francisco in 1947 with only $80, which Girone hid inside buttons. <\/p>\n<p>They arrived in New York City in 1947. She later started a knitting store with the help of her mother. <\/p>\n<p>Girone was also reunited with her brother, who went to France for school and ended up getting his U.S. citizenship by joining the Army. When she went to the airport to pick him up in New York, it was the first time they saw each other in 17 years. <\/p>\n<p>Girone later divorced Mannheim. In 1968, she met Jack Girone, the same day her granddaughter was born. By the next year, they were married. He died in 1990. <\/p>\n<p>When asked in 1996 for the message she would like to leave for her daughter and granddaughter, she said: &#8220;Nothing is so very bad that something good shouldn&#8217;t come out of it. No matter what it is.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to Patch, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hmtcli.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center (HMTC)<\/a> said that, when asked in 2022 about her longevity, Girone said simply, &#8220;Don&#8217;t get upset over nonsense.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p><!-- tags --><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/rose-girone-oldest-living-holocaust-survivor-dies-113\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rose Girone, believed to be the oldest living Holocaust survivor and a strong advocate for sharing survivors&#8217; stories, has died.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9400,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[326],"class_list":["post-9399","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-us","tag-holocaust"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Rose Girone, thought to be the oldest living Holocaust survivor, dies at 113 - World News<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Rose Girone, believed to be the oldest living Holocaust survivor and a strong advocate for sharing survivors&amp;#039; stories, has died.
