During the interim, Mrs. Rupp spent her childhood struggling with her mother to survive Nazi Germany. Enduring the conflict and the hardship, Mrs. Rupp formed an exceptionally strong bond with her mother. Upon her father’s return, Mrs. Rupp had to adjust to two new additions to the family: her father Ernst and her new baby sister Karoline.
