I'm watching Ken Burns The War and wanted to know more about Sascha. She lived an incredible life. She earned her peaceful rest.

Having heard of Sasha´s truly remarkable survival story we all are truly inspired by her courage, bravery resilience warmth and humanity. We offer our very sincere condolences on her passing.

Having Just learned that you are no longer with us, I am particularly saddened as you surely had many more truly unbelievable actual accounts of your youth during WWW2. Your families plight during WWW2 is similar to my families, except they were in a different camp in a nearby occupied territory. Thanks for sharing as my dad and family didn´t really talk much about what went down, for the reasons you stated. RIP bless you little girl big woman.

Amazing strong women. Watches “the war” a few times now. Thank you for sharing your story with the world. You are a true angel

Thank you so much for sharing your personal challenges and memories of your time in the Philippines. So many people, including myself, thus have a chance, however distant, to have a feeling for what you went through, and will never forget.

Thank you for participating in the PBS WWII documentary. I was so sorry for the suffering your family endured. I was moved to reach out to you and sad to see that you have left this world.

Mrs. Jansen,
Ma’am, I was just watching “The War” on PBS and I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your story of what you had to endure in Japanese captivity in the Philippines during WW II. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Dear Sascha,

Thank you for sharing your story on War. I've just finished the series and was taken back by your stories.

The courage, strength and dignity you showed throughout the time you and your family were in captivity is inspiring.

May you rest in peace.
