Source: Moment Magazine, October 1999, page 77 Author: Lyric Wallwork Winik "Mrs. K. recounted how her group of 21 survivors entered the remains of the gas chambers and crematoria at Auschwitz. ..."I did not give a candle to Dr. Muench because I did not want to put him in an uncomfortable position. Dr. Muench came up to me and asked why he wasn't getting a candle. I said, 'I didn't know if you would find it strange to light one.' He said, 'Yes, I want to light a candle to the memory of those innocent people whom I saw through the peephole dying in the gas chamber.'" Moment Magazine 4710 41st.
