My Beloved Gyuri

Between the years 1933 and 1945, Adolf Hitler organized the murder of six million European Jews. Darkness was everywhere and Gyuri Rabinek experienced hell on earth—the smell and constant threat of death. But with his rescue, Gyuri's soul survived. Like a butterfly, he emerged to a new life in a new place. "His life story is my inspiration," says author Roberta Rabinek.

A loved one dies. The minutiae of life fades. And one finds time to reflect, to have a mirror into the departed's soul. Roberta Rabinek's husband Gyuri's memory never leaves her heart, but his inner struggles and experiences come unbidden to her mind's forefront. Gyuri rose above the most horrific conditions as a European Jew during World War II. With resilience he grew beyond his traumatic experiences, overcoming adversity to become an advocate for the rights of human beings.

Roberta Rabinek is a talented writer and storyteller. She recounts the struggles of her husband Gyrui with poignancy and optimism for the future.
