Stories from Previous Residents
Ethan Schaff's mother is from Kosiv, and the two of them recently visited the city, both to rekindle old
memories, and to see the places she could remember. She survived the Holocaust there by hiding in the
attic of a barn for three years, and wanted to share her memories with her son.
