Seventy-five years ago this week, British troops liberated the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in northern Germany.
Fifteen-year-old Margit Feldman was one of the prisoners who were liberated on April 15, 1945. She survived the Nazi death camps, but one day short of the 75th anniversary of her freedom, she could not survive the coronavirus. She died April 14, just two months before her 91st birthday.
Gov. Phil Murphy, in his daily coronavirus press conference on Thursday, honored Feldman for her community service and her efforts to educate young people about the Holocaust.
"May her memory be a blessing to her family and to us all," the governor said, adding that hope was part of the message she delivered to thousands of young people.

Cross gently, Margit.
