A New Phase in My Life

I feel so blessed. I get to work with the most amazing adults through my service with AmeriCorps. There's nothing better than doing something you truly love and being with people who bring sunshine into your life!
I was the Program Coordinator for Bradshaw Mountain Special Olympics for 9 years and being with the athletes made me feel the same way. Their sincerity is the real deal!
I so enjoyed my first day at YEI!
I will be searching for jobs for the employees who are ...

ready to soar outside of YEI, from the three job locations; Washington Avenue Industries (Prescott), Antelope Point Industries (Prescott Valley) and Ruger Airpark Industries (Prescott Airport). There are many skills to be offered, so if I come to your business in the Quad-City (Prescott, Chino Valley, Prescott Valley and Dewey/Humboldt), please give me a moment to tell you about our staff and our dynamic Production Technicians.
I recommend everyone who lives in the Quad-City to visit any of the YEI locations and watch these employees in action! Your heart will definitely be won over! I guarantee it!
I maybe seeing you very soon! :-)

The Hanauer Family - Before, During, and After the Holocaust

This is a Holocaust history book of the Hanauer Family of Berlin.  It includes documents from museums and historians from around the world. 

My family took their stories of survival to their graves.  I was determined to learn what happened to my grandfather Hans.  He disappeared from the streets of Berlin never to be heard from again.  I learned his fate and I share it in this book.

My journey to learn my heritage:

As I grew up, I had questions about my family. I knew my family was from Germany, but other than that, not much else. The only members of my family from Germany that were still alive would not open up to me about what happened to my family during the holocaust that occurred in Europe.

My Father, Uri Hanauer was born in Berlin, Germany on February 6, 1940. I had no idea that he was a holocaust survivor until after his death on December 5, 1981. My grandmother pulled me aside at my father’s memorial service and told me that she and my father had been in a concentration camp during WWII. She said she needed to tell me this so I would understand why my father was never open with me about his childhood. I asked her the name of the camp and she would not tell me.

In 2002 my grandfather’s sister, Ilse had told me the name of the camp that my father, grandmother and great grandfather were taken to. It was Terezin (Theresienstadt) located in the Czech Republic. I started looking on the web for information on Theresienstadt and learned there was a museum in Israel that had the records of when people were transported to the camp. I had contacted the museum and they sent me copies of the transport documents for both my father and my grandmother. This was the beginning of my quest to learn the whole truth about my family’s survival during the holocaust. The only problem was that the 3 members of my family who had survived were now all deceased.

I then started sending emails to various German agencies on what I knew about my family, which at this point was very little. Fortunately my great aunt Ilse had given me names of some of my relatives just before her death in 2002.

I started out by not knowing anything about my family!:

I have learned the following from documents I have obtained from many agencies around the world starting in 2003. The notebook that holds these documents is 5” thick and filled. I have added another note book with correspondences I have had with The International Red Cross, historians, authors and German’s who knew my family during the war:
