During the Second World War, an estimated 8,000 women were deported from France to Ravensbrück in Germany, the largest concentration camp for women under the Third Reich. Among them was Suzanne Bouvard, a young woman from Saint-Marcel in Brittany, arrested for having provided first aid to Resistance fighters and parachutists from France libre (Free France). During her time in the camps, she became friends with Simone Séailles, a Resistance member from Paris. In life, and in death, their destinies were bound together.

That was a tribute to an enduring human spirit. This quotation near the end of the piece seemed to summarize the message.
“The essential things in life are freedom, solidarity and respect for every human being.”As some people say, "May their memory be a blessing."
