In
memory of my father, who saved me from life under Communism and gave me

Although many in my family both in Russia and in Ukraine suffered under
Communism, I would like to dedicate this tribute to my grandfather,
Rafael Voetsky. Rev. Rafael Voetsky was a Russian Orthodox military
chaplain at the outbreak of the revolution. He was taken at gunpoint
from his wife and five children never to be seen from again. My
grandmother and her children had to flee her community of Nikolaevsk on
the Amur in order to escape a similar fate.

Donated by Vitezslava Plsek
In memory of my husband, Vlastimil, who spent over 11 years in a
Communist concentration camp and was forced to work in uranium mines in
Jachymov in what was then Czechoslovakia. I hope that the memorial to
victims of totalitarian Communism will also wake up all of those people
who still think that Communism is good.

To the memory of victims from Latvia
00050 – 199
Donated by Latvian National Federation in
Canada
In memory of those
who were lost on the path of torture in the Soviet Gulag.
To the starving men
who fell by the roadsides.
To the mothers who
held their frozen children in their arms.
To the children
whose souls were gathered by God in the vastness of Siberia.
To the heroes
who sacrificed their lives so that Latvia would be a free
and democratic country.
Let the world know the price we have paid for our right to
exist as a nation.
