MAKOWENSKY, Anna (nee Labaj) - (March 12, 1923 - August 10, 2020) -
Born in 1923 in the town of Ustrzyky, in the southern corner of Western Ukraine. Today this area is part of southeastern Poland, and is a major tourist area for outdoor activity.
As a child she would walk the 18 kms to visit her aunt and uncle who lived on a farm across the other side of the mountains. At an early age, not gaining much from school studies, Anna went under the tutelage of a seamstress to learn a trade. She was quite successful and proficient at sewing.
In 1941 after the war had broken out and the Germans came to her town, she was sent away to Germany to serve as slave labour in a textile mill, in Bremen. For the next 4 years she experienced all the horrors of war from constant bombing, leaving the shelter in the morning, stepping over bodies, to go to work in the mill. This is where she met Michael, was married, and for 3 years after the war lived in a displaced persons camp.
