From August 1942, she moved from one hiding place to another in her hometown of Rotterdam, unable to find shelter even at the home of her non-Jewish future in-laws because the neighbors knew her. Bloemes fiancé contacted Marinus Post*, who found her a refuge where she stayed for some time. At the beginning of September 1943, Bloeme moved to the home of the van Heusden family in Vlaardingen, near Rotterdam. Cornelis van Heusden was the brother of Bloemes fiancés brother-in-law. Bloeme was made very welcome at the van Heusdens home and she stayed there until January 1944, when she moved to the home of Ari and Johanna Don*, also in Vlaardingen. On May 24, 1979, Yad Vashem recognized Cornelis van Heusden and his wife, Lena van Heusden-Nuijt, as Righteous Among the Nations. |
