Regine Donner is the daughter of Arie and Sabine (Reinert) Donner. She was born in Sokal, Poland. When she was only a few months old, her family moved to Antwerp, Belgium. Regine had four siblings: Clara, Israel, David, and Henry (later Zvi). After Germany’s invasion of Belgium in May 1940, the family tried to flee to France but only got as far as Dunkirk, France, and had to return home. Soon after their return, the family was separated. Regine Donner survived the Holocaust in hiding.
