Auschwitz survivor to speak Sunday in Salem

SALEM

Agi Geva has a tattoo that she said “will never be removed.”

Geva is now 80 and travels the country to recount her life after the Nazis invaded Hungary on March 19, 1944, and marked her.

Geva will be the special speaker at the National Holocaust Remembrance Day Service at the Salem Community Center, 1098 N. Ellsworth Ave., starting at 2 p.m. Sunday.

Geva, her sister Zsuzsanna, who is one year younger than Geva, and her parents, Rozsa and Zoltan Laszlo, were living in Miskolcz,

Poland. Zoltan had been sick and died the day the Nazis invaded.

The remainder of the family was sent to Auschwitz, where the Nazis tattooed them with prisoner numbers.
