On 27 February 2013, Günter Demming, amid great interest, placed 56 stumbling stones in the sidewalk in front of the former Jewish Old Age Home, the Central Home for Israelites in the Netherlands, now the De Haven building at Oosthaven 31. Ies Cohen shared his compelling memories of the deportation: in the In the evening of 9 April 1943, the SS and police came to evacuate the Jewish Old Age Home. The residents had already packed their backpacks, the mood was relaxed. They were loaded onto cars and transported by train via Rotterdam to Westerbork. Finally, their lives ended violently, usually in Sobibor. The oldest deported resident was Paulina Elzas-Gersons, aged 93, from Tilburg. Her sister-in-law, Catharina Jacoba Gersons-Salomons, also from Tilburg, also lived there and was 77 years old when she was murdered in Sobibor, as did almost all the elderly who lived at Oosthaven 31.
