Maria Altmann

Just watched your story on Netflix. So sorry for your loss.

Just saw Woman In Gold, and I was moved to tears. Nothing will ever make up for the horrible injustice done to Maria and her family but I´m glad they got a small measure of compensation.

I just read about her life and did not know her but knew the family of her lawyer Shoenberg as CW Post college music department endowed him as their chairman. I read in horror what the gestapo did to him as I have relatives who endured the gestapo. I found out on Ancestry that I am related to Honig, because Jeanette Honig became Bauer and then Bauer of future generations married Bloch, Bauer. May this wonderful woman live in the glory of heaven. So sad to see her die. Marilyn Bloch

I got so impress about her life, she is really an inspiration how persistence works in life.

A heroine for all time, an authentic inspiration. I am sorry for all Mrs. Altmann was robbed: her family, her friends, her neighbors, her Austria, her world. Yet, in all the unimaginable atrocities and barbarism, Maria Altmann not only survived, she triumphed. I am in awe of the love she never yielded, her fortitude, her endurance and her courage. May God rest your soul Maria V. Altmann, and all your beloved who have left our earthly world. A sheynem dank, thank you very much for being such an extraordinary woman and human being to the fullest of Gods creation.
America was indeed privileged to grant you citizenship in our United States.

I saw the movie on T.V. of the life of Maria Altmann, she was a very sweet nice person and she loved her family very much! I hope to see her painting someday. I love the true story. Thank You for printing it. Always, Angie

SOMEONE SO SPECIAL CAN NEVER BE FORGOTTEN, ITS MARIA'S DETERMINATION, COURAGE AND BRAVERY WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER....RIH

I watched the movie today. We who have not experienced the loss of our family in the way Maria did can never truly know how it felt. The recovery of the paints was justice at its best. I'm happy that Maria had the courage to see the process through and enjoy the rewards of her effort. God bless her family!

I never knew you Mrs. Maria Altmann, but God Bless your family for all they went through. I was touched by your life story.

And now you're precious son is with you. I miss you and Chuck both

I think about you every day, Maria. But you know this :-) Missing you lots. LUV, G

Dearest Mutzi,

I will always carry you in my heart. Thank you for making my life a more wonderful world. Love, Mona

Dear Peter - Today you have been in my thoughts. I went to the computer to see if I could find you like I did before. My previous computer crashed and I lost all the emails. There are no coincidences that it was this day. My deep sympathy to you and your family upon the loss of your mother. Many prayers and blessings to you all.
Love, Christine from Minnesota

It is with heartfelt sympathy that I send this message. Death is not an easy thing to go through but just know that God is waiting to heal your broken heart. Psalms 147:3

Maria Altmann's story is so remarkable I do hope that a family member is writing her biography. I met Peter & Marjorie while attending UPS many years ago. My thoughts & prayers to the entire family.

Please accept my sympathy for your loss. May the hope of seeing Ms. Maria again sustain you. The Holy Scriptures promise: "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyesa and death will be no more, neither mourning nor outcry anymore, the former things have passed away.

I had a Jewish Grandmother that I really adored, she told me a lot about what happened with Nazi, she said it was terrible. My grandmother passed away a lont time ago but I look forward to see her in the ressurection. Isa. 25:8,9 is very encouraging to read, it will give you and your family comfort. JC-Hemet

To Peter and Family, Mutzi was such a classy and strong woman that will be missed by many. Your family was blessed to have such a wonderful Mom. May your Family find strength together during this time.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Peter - My prayers are with you and your family. I am so sorry for your loss. We miss you at P.T.

Jim - I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a charming and beautiful woman, to say the very least. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Wow What a wonderful unselfish woman she was... May she rest in peace knowing she accomplished her dreams...GOD SPEED

Dear Altmann Family, we have never met; however, my wife and I are very sorry for your loss.

To Maria Altmann family and friends. I would like to express my deepest sympathy. May you find comfort in knowing that God care for you and your loved one. (1 Peter :7).

Mrs. Maria Altmann gave me a gift on the day of her argument before the Supreme Court of the United States. Our time together was not long, but sufficient for me to receive the gift of her calmness and warmth.

What a wonderful story a lady fightS for justice an wins. God Speed.

MARIA: YOU AMD YOUR FAMILY HAVE MY DEEPEST SYMPAYHY.YOU WILL AIWAYS BE REMEMBERED FOR YOUR DEEDS AND THE SACRIFICE OF OUR FAMILIES BEFORE US.MAY GOD SMILE UPON YOU AND YOUR FAMILY...GOOD-BYE MARIA

"A fearless fighter of justice." Is this not the pinnacle of living a life in full measure? What an extraordinary woman, what a beautiful soul. Your story has touched me deeply......a testimony to the fact that love never dies. Thank you for gracing this planet, and thank you for showing us all that one must stand up for their beliefs, and, at times, push back very hard in speaking the truth to power. My husband and I built our romance from a simple greeting card that had a picture of "The Kiss," by the same artist, on it. A woman of substance, you are a soaring, joyous, spirit now.

BRAVO!!!!!! R.I.P.

My sincere condolences to the family and friends of Maria Altmann. What a fine formidable woman she was. May you all know her name is written in the autograph of GOD.

Rest well, dear lady, your mission on earth completed. Your ancestors are applauding your might! May your family take comfort knowing you were a magnificent human being.
B'shalom.

My deepest sorrow and condolences on the loss of your dear loved. The Bible assures us that our Heavenly Father is " near to those that are broken at heart, and those crushed in spirit he saves". May your memories bring you a measure of comfort at this time.

May her memory be for a blessing. "Baruch Dayan HaEmet"

I send my condolences to the families and friends of Mrs. Maria Altmann,
What bravery your mother and grandmother had. This is something to always remember. May you also throw your burden on our Heavenly Father and He will sustain you at this time of need. He is comforting all those who are mourning, He is the God of comfort.

TO THE ALTMANN FAMILY,I EXPRESS MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY AT THIS VERY DIFFICULT AND PAINFUL TIME.PLEASE FIND COMFORT IN READING PSALMS 37;11.A,W.HOUSTON,TX.

Maria, you were a true champion and an inspiration to others to "never give up" when you are on the side of right. God Bless You for your strength and perseverance.

I never met Maria but I wish I had. What an important and inspirational life. Rest in peace!

our condolences

Maria was a frequent dinner guest of my late mother, Lily. Mother provided the most delicious Austrian dishes, but Maria, with her charm and intelligent conversation, provided the sparkle. That generation is going and we will always remember them as true survivors.

Lilo Lang Siegman

I never met you, but I followed the story and was so happy for you that you were given back that which was rightfully yours. The world must **NEVER** forget, lest history repeat itself. May you rest in peace.
