Narrative: Anny (Diamant) Kraus was born in 26 July 1891 in Vienna. She attended dress making school and married Arnost Kraus, a designer in the firm where she worked. Their daughter, Gretl, was sent to England around 1939 when German troops invaded Czechoslovakia. Eventually, Gretl received some of the items her parents had left to a friend before they left Moravia. From official documents she also learned that her parents had been sent to Terezin in June 1942. They died there. Gretl Klaus Fischer moved to Canada in 1951.
