“Then [Anne] told me to put on a dress of our real grandmother, Otto's and my mother's mother, and a hat and her high heeled shoes and imitate her, which I did. Anne had a wonderful laugh. She was a very happy and playful girl.” - Cousin Buddy Elias as told to PR.com

“On July 5th 1942 Otto Frank sent a postcard to us telling us that we would have to understand, that we could not correspond anymore. We knew then, that they were going to hide.” - Cousin Buddy Elias as told to PR.com
“The first we heard after the war was a telegram we received from The Red Cross telling us, ‘We'll arrive soon in Marseille in good health. Otto.’” - Cousin Buddy Elias as told to PR.com
