Obituary for Hanna "Hanka" Ehrlich (Granek)

Hanna "Hanka" Granek Ehrlich was born in 1924 in Bedzin, Poland. Hanna was a kind and gentle woman, a Zionist, a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She held dear Yiddishkeit. After losing her entire family in World War II, she reunited with an old friend, Wolf Ehrlich whom she married. In 1951 they sailed to America with son Isaac, where shortly after son Harold was born. The family had a farm and later a china and crystal shop. She traveled all over the world, including her favorite country Israel. Hanna is a charter member of the United States Holocaust Museum and supporter of the Schoffer Holocaust Center at Stockton University where her war and family documents are on display. Hanna is memorialized in the book Holocaust Survivors of South Jersey: Portraits of Resilience. She was a long time member of the Amit Women's Group and Sisterhood of the McKee City Jewish Farmers Congregation. She was a congregation member at Beth El Synagogue. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband Wolf Ehrlich, and brother David Dov. She is survived by her sons Isaac and Harold, her daughter-in-law Diane, her grandchildren Melissa, Elizabeth, Jeremy and his wife Jill, as well as her great-grandchildren Molly and Skylar. Hanna’s memory will forever live on in those who loved her dearly and through her book, An Exile from a Paradise: Memories of a Holocaust Survivor from Będzin, Poland. Relatives and friends are invited to attend graveside services Friday (today), June 22nd, at 11am, at Rodef Sholom Cemetery, 6691 Black Horse Pike, Egg Harbor Twp, NJ.
