In 2009, Rachael Cerrotti, a college student pursuing a career in photojournalism, asked her grandmother, Hana, if she could record her story. Rachael knew that her grandmother was a Holocaust survivor and the only one in her family alive at the end of the war. Rachael also knew that she survived because of the kindness of strangers. It wasn’t a secret. Hana spoke about her history publicly and regularly. But, Rachael wanted to document it as only a granddaughter could. So, that’s what they did: Hana talked and Rachael wrote. Upon Hana’s passing in 2010, Rachael discovered an incredible archive of her life. There were preserved albums and hundreds of photographs dating back to the 1920s. There were letters waiting to be translated, journals, diaries, deportation and immigration papers as well as creative writings from various stages of Hana’s life. Rachael digitized and organized it all, plucking it from the past and placing it into her present. Then, she began retracing her grandmother’s story, following her through Central Europe, Scandinavia, and across the United States. She tracked down the descendants of those who helped save her grandmother’s life during the war. Rachael went in pursuit of her grandmother’s memory to explore how the retelling of family stories becomes the history itself. We Share the Same Sky weaves together the stories of these two young women—Hana as a refugee who remains one step ahead of the Nazis at every turn, and Rachael, whose insatiable curiosity to touch the past guides her into the lives of countless strangers, bringing her love and tragic loss. Throughout the course of her twenties, Hana’s history becomes a guidebook for Rachael in how to live a life empowered by grief.

Celia’s story came about after the death of her daddy. Being that Texas Grandma lost her daddy as a child also and that there was no one to tell his story, Texas Grandma gained a strong desire to write all my memories of Celia from birth to now and tell all my memories of our son so his children would at least have memories of their daddy to help keep his memory alive and real to us all. As I started, Texas Grandpa started adding his memories also. These are memories of events and sayings from both Celia and Kyle throughout their lives. We want Celia to share this story with Asha and especially with Ephraim, since he was so small, for them at least have these words down to help him know the father who was so proud of all three of them and for them to know that we will be here for them as long as we live. The love we have for them and the love we had for our son never dies!
