It is good to hear that her daughter survived to old age, but with such a sad history to remember. There are so many of these sad stories through-out history. I remember reading an excellent biography about Tsar Nicholas and Alexandra and finishing the book on the exact anniversary of their similarly tragic deaths. One thing I believe is true - love transcends our mortal lives, and this rendition that you have shared of their short lives is deeply moving. Thank you, dear Dani, for such a touching reflection on history. <br />Sending hugs and blessings to you xo KarenKaren @ Beatrice Euphemiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631972741518142563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8780738657147797732.post-75163641724215731912017-06-26T20:56:53.430+02:002017-06-26T20:56:53.430+02:00Such a sad sad story in so many ways, but it was a...Such a sad sad story in so many ways, but it was amazing to hear how her faith in the Lord kept her until the end.

She got married with her cousin and died at the age of 73, never forgetting the episodes which occured during the Revoltion which marked her so, so deeply, for sure !<br /><br />Enjoy your weekend with gladness, darling friend, <br />thank you once again, but never enough *•♥♥•*Danielahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01759677667896507266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8780738657147797732.post-58379954782278403862017-06-24T18:02:36.932+02:002017-06-24T18:02:36.932+02:00@ Janet
