Conditions there were excellent, though restrictive. The Levies had a sitting room and a separate bedroom to which they were confined because other families were lodged on the property. Furthermore, the Jewish family could not go outside because Ellekom was a small village very close to their home village, and everyone knew each other there. The Levies paid toward their upkeep but this did not compensate for the great risks taken by their hosts, especially since the Germans had a training camp in the village. The Bosmans had four teenage children who were very kind to the refugees and visited them several times a day. On November 18, 1944, the Germans apprehended Salomon Levie, but Rosa and Jo escaped to the home of the Witke* sisters, where they had hidden for a few days in the past. After the war, the Bosmans and the Levies maintained a warm friendship. On February 15, 1979, Yad Vashem recognized Herman Bosman and his wife, Dina Bosman-Broers, as Righteous Among the Nations.
