"Marion Pritchard, a Dutch social work student who was credited with
saving dozens of Jews during the Holocaust, spiriting some to safe
houses, hiding others under floorboards, and, in one case, executing a
Nazi before he could arrest a family of four, died Dec. 11 in
Washington. She was 96."

A true hero.  RIP.  Via Robert Hansen and Irreverent Monk.

Cheers,
