We are all strong women. We all did
what we had to do. I am descended from German, Prussian, Russian
Lutherans and Austrian Catholics to German &Transylvanian
Hutterites to Russian Mennonites. They left behind homes due to
religious persecution and always moving toward that land of the free.
The strength of these women was unimaginable. I hope that my
daughters and their descendants inherit their ancestors' strength.
