A brother and sister have been reunited sixty years after the Holocaust(大屠杀) because of a website set up in Israel.

Simon Glasberg, who lives in Canada, and Hilda Schilk, who lives in Israel, long thought each other dead, but finally found each other following the efforts of Schilk’s grandchildren who had been searching the “Central Database of Victims” Names’ website in Israel and discovered a page in memory of their grandmother. The page had been made by Schilk’s brother, who believed she had been killed during the Holocaust.

Using the website, the grandchildren were then able to look for their grandmother’s remaining siblings(兄弟姐妹). After flying into Israel from Canada, Glasberg spoke about the tearful reunion with his sister. “I looked and looked and I couldn’t find her. My parents also used to cry whenever they remembered her.”

Simon landed in the airport, came out, and then stood there, not knowing where to continue. Then his nephew said, “Simon, this is your sister.” And suddenly he cried. They haven’t left each other since then; they talk in Yiddish, laugh, cry, and tell a lot of stories.

 Schilk was born in 1934 and the family lived in Romania during the Holocaust years, before traveling into Poland and Ukraine. Though they were both in Israel at the same time, Simon and his parents and siblings didn’t know his younger sister was alive.

 Another elder brother, also in Canada, was too ill to make the trip to Israel, but the reunited family is planning to visit him in Canada soon.
