Cecilia "Cesia" Salzman, 103, of Center City, died on December 27th at The Watermark of complications from old age. She was one of the regions oldest Holocaust survivors. Salzman walked out of a Polish ghetto during World War II and survived by concealing her identity with counterfeit documents. She is the last of eight children, four of whom perished during the Holocaust. Mrs. Salzman and her late husband Charles Salzman were separated during the war, but found each other in a displacement camp in Germany afterwards. Their daughter Emanuela Miller Cooke ("Emmy Miller"), President of consulting firm Liberty Business Strategies, was born in Heidelberg, prior to the family immigrating to the United States after the war. Salzman first lived in the US on a chicken farm in Vineland, New Jersey where her niece had settled, and then moved to Northeast Philadelphia in the 1950s. She worked as a bookkeeper at Lippincott Publishing and as a volunteer librarian at the Franklin Institute. In addition to her daughter, she is survived by three grandsons, Alexander (Deborah) Miller, Geoffrey (Nita) Klein and Peter (Sari) Klein and six great-grandchildren. Her daughter said, "Against all odds, she survived a ghetto in Poland and the Holocaust. She was a strong woman, proud of her heritage, and humbled at having survived the Holocaust." Services for Mrs. Salzman will be private.
