Prince William’s message in Yad Vashem remembrance book
Here is the Duke of Cambridge's message in the book of remembrance at Israel's national Holocaust memorial museum
Here is the Duke of Cambridge’s message in the Yad Vashem, Israel’s national Holocaust memorial museum’s book of Remembrance:
It has been a profoundly moving experience to visit Yad Vashem today. It is almost impossible to comprehend this appalling event in history.
Every name, photograph and memory recorded here is a tragic reminder of the unimaginable human cost of the Holocaust and the immense loss suffered by the Jewish people.
The story of the Holocaust is one of darkness and despair, questioning humanity itself. But the actions of those few who took great risks to help others are a reminder of the human capacity for love and hope.
I am honoured that my own great grandmother is one of these righteous among the nations. We must never forget the Holocaust – the murder of 6 million men, women and children, simply because they were Jewish.
We all have a responsibility to remember and to teach future generations about the horrors of the past so that they can never reoccur.
May the millions of Jewish people remembered by Yad Vashem never be forgotten
