A true hero, known by Jews as a Righteous Christian. 

Thank you Miep for being the kind of person who made a difference.

I think the word I was really looking for was compassion.

Thank you, Miep Gies, for showing us that people did indeed have kindness in their souls despite the ugliness happening all around them.
