Rozette Lopes-Dias Van Thyn (September 19, 1921 – June 27, 2010), known as Rose Van Thyn, was a survivor of the World War II Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland, who as a naturalized United States citizen residing in Shreveport, Louisiana, was involved for three decades in education about the Holocaust. ==The Holocaust== In 1942, when the Nazis occupied Amsterdam, Netherlands, Rose and her family were taken to Auschwitz. They were placed on a railroad cattle car with nearly one hundred other people and two buckets, one for drinking, and one for waste. At Auschwitz, she underwent gruesome medical experiments. Later she was dispatched to Ravensbrueck and managed to survive a "death march" at the end of the war. She was liberated by American soldiers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Holocaust survivor Rose Van Thyn passes away, June 27, 2010 )〕 Rose lost both parents, a sister, and her first husband, Mozes Lezer, in the death camps. She met a fellow survivor, Levie/Louis van Thijn (July 6, 1919 – August 27, 2008),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Social Security Death Index )〕 whose first wife, Estella Halverstad, had died in the Holocaust at Sobibor.〔(Genealogical page of Levie van Thijn )〕 Rose and Louis married in Amsterdam in 1946. Nine years later, the Van Thijns and their two children, Nico and Elsa, immigrated to Shreveport, where the spelling of their name was changed to "Van Thyn". Their immigration was sponsored by the Shreveport Jewish Federation and the family of A.A. "Abe" Gilbert (1895–1966),〔 owner of a pipe supply company. After the mandatory five-year wait, Louis, Rose, and their children became U.S. citizens on May 23, 1961. For several decades, she related her life story before civic groups, churches, and schools throughout northwest Louisiana, often making a lasting impression on her listeners.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Obituary of Rose Van Thyn )〕
