OBITUARIES / Pepi Deutsch, 101, One of the Oldest Survivors of Horrors at Auschwitz
1999
Overview
Pepi Deutsch, the Hungarian Jew who fooled the Nazis into keeping her alive and then managed to get herself and her daughter through the horrors of slave labor, has died peacefully at age 101, one of the world's oldest survivors of the Holocaust. \"For me, the world has collapsed,\" her daughter, Clara Knopfler, of Scarsdale, said Saturday. \"It doesn't matter how old she was. I have had 70 years of uninterrupted support from my mother, and I don't know how I'm supposed to live without her.\" Deutsch died Friday at Lawrence Hospital in Bronxville, a day after being admitted with bladder cancer. The hardship Deutsch endured in her 40s-Auschwitz, slave labor, the death of 37 relatives including her husband, her son and her mother-left no apparent bitterness. In an interview last year, when she was honored by the Holocaust commission, she said she felt her family around her still, \"no matter if they're dead.\" Her hellish experiences hadn't sapped her zest for life.
