We stopped moving around and immediately got back to work at home.
-
Then in May we went to work together in the rice-fields in Piedmont, and by the end of the year she got married.
-
After the war was over we weren’t involved in the Resistance anymore.
-
Maybe I did have a card, you see, but I don’t know anymore.
-
Our family was at home then, and we were rather happy, although we didn’t have any money or anything at all.
-
We really had to get to work and do something.

My sister was about to get married and we didn’t even have anything for her trousseau.

Brother deserts from the army
-
Then it was September of 1944 when I went to Como.
-
I left for Milan by foot with a friend. We made it to Piacenza on the first day, then to Milan the day after.
-
We were going to visit my brother, since we didn’t have any news about him anymore.
-
Mail wasn’t delivered to Marola anymore, although at times when I went to Reggio for my tasks I would take care of it.
-
My parents said that it was too far, but we left Marola and arrived in Milan in two days.
-
From there we took the train to Como.
-
In Como a man asked us where we were going,
-
and we replied that we were going to visit our brothers since they hadn’t sent any news for a long time.
-
We were also going to tell them that they had to run away,
-
because the Germans were sending all sorts of people who were caught during roundups to Germany, especially young men, as well as the Jews.
-
Then the man asked us where we had slept, and we told him we slept in the train station.
-
“But the station is closed at night”, he said. “I guess we’ll sleep in a shelter then”, we replied.
