Rose Girone, the oldest known Holocaust survivor who endured both German and Japanese oppression but lived for eight decades beyond the end of World War II, has died at age 113.

She fled Nazi Germany in 1939 with her husband and baby only to be forced into a Jewish ghetto in Shanghai. Still, she would often say, “Aren’t we lucky?”

Six million European Jews and people from other minorities were killed by the Nazis and their collaborators during the Holocaust.

Rose Girone, who would have been unlikely to see her 30th birthday if she hadn't escaped Nazi Germany just in time, has died at age 113. Girone, the oldest known Holocaust survivor, died this week at a nursing home on Long Island.
