Elana Stein was far too young to leave this world. She was a promising and gifted young lady, and her unexpected passing came as a terrible shock to her fellow Volunteers at the Museum. God Rest Her Soul and God Comfort Her Family.

Elana Stein passed away at just twenty years old. She was a Great-Grandchild of Holocaust Survivors and a kind and loving soul. She was a dedicated Volunteer at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.

Elana Stein was a Great-Grandchild of Holocaust Survivors, a Dedicated Volunteer at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and a Kind and Loving Soul who Touched the Lives of So Many People Before Her Passing at Just Twenty Years Old in 2014. God Rest Her Soul and God Comfort Everyone Whose Heart She Warmed.

A Great-Granddaughter of Holocaust Victims, Elana meets Concentration Camp Survivor Nesse Godin at the Museum in 2010.

Elana's death came as a huge shock to her fellow Volunteers at the Museum. I interviewed her several years ago when she was 16, and she immediately found herself welcome. As a Great-Granddaughter of Holocaust victims, it was beautiful to see her interacting with Holocaust Survivor Nesse Godin and having their photo taken together. Her passing grieves us, our hearts reach out to her family. God grant her Soul eternal rest and peace, and God comfort all those who knew her.
