Krystal Nacht 

In memory of Kristallnacht -  November 9, 1938

On that night in Berlin and other cities throughout Germany and Austria, Jewish businesses were destroyed and Jewish families were dragged from their homes and sent to concentration camps.

As the night rang with the terrifying music of breaking glass, thirty thousand people were sent to the long slow death of imprisonment at Dachau, Buchenwald and Sachsenhausen.

I will forever be haunted by a poem written by a young boy who died in one of the camps.
I'll Never See Another Butterfly reminds me to respect and celebrate the fragility of life.
