Casale Monferrato

The laying of the first stumbling blocks in January 2016 met with great interest from the people of Casale Monferrato . Numerous family members of the wealthy descendants of the two murdered women had also traveled from large parts of Italy. The city magazine reported in detail in advance. The following spoke: Titti Palazzetti, the mayor of Casale Monferrato, and two direct descendants of the victims, whereby some essential aspects of life came to light. The mayor recalled on the one hand those who helped Jews and on the other hand the racist laws of fascist Italy and those who implemented them.

Nadia Coen, granddaughter or great-granddaughter of the two women, read a letter from her grandmother Erminia Morello Lucia, addressed to her mother. The newspaper Il Monferrato characterized the writing as "touching" (toccante). Erminia was arrested a few days after her husband's death and funeral and abducted by German forces. Nevertheless, on the way to Auschwitz, in Piacenza to be precise, she managed to find a trustworthy person who took over the letter and sent it to her old mother, who was already 80 years old. In it the daughter admonished her mother to eat “healthy” and take care of herself, promised to send her her address after her arrival and concluded “with many kisses and blessings”. Lia Erminia Tagliacozzo, great-granddaughter or great-great-granddaughter, came from Venice to report: “When the Carabinieri were looking for her, Erminia was not at home. She went straight to the bursary because she had nothing to hide. She couldn't understand that she was in danger, they couldn't see any reason. "

The ceremony was closed with the kaddish .
