Ewald Friedländer, a Berlin lawyer, fled to The Hague after Kristallnacht in November 1938, followed by his wife Dora and son Felix. Felix died in 1939. In 1940, the Friedländers were forced to leave The Hague and moved to Bilthoven. Dora later returned to live with their daughter Marion in Scheveningen, while Ewald stayed in Bilthoven. In 1942, they were forced to Amsterdam, eventually reuniting at Louis Bothastraat 20. On 9 March 1943, they were deported to Westerbork and later, in February 1944, to Theresienstadt. On 9 October 1944, they were sent to Auschwitz, where they were murdered upon arrival on 11 October. Ewald was 64, Dora 61.
