Eva Goldberg was the mother of Anne's classmate Sal Kimel.[1] She was married to Felix Kimel.[2] According to Ab Rinat (Reiner), the son of her sister, Lea Goldberg, and good friend of his cousin Sal Kimel, Eva Goldberg was arrested in the street, but he did not give any further details about this in the interview.[3]

After her arrest in November 1942, she ended up in camp Westerbork via the Hollandsche Schouwburg. Because her brother-in-law Josef Reiner had connections with the Jewish Council, he arranged for Eva to stay in Westerbork. This worked for six months, but finally, on 18 May 1943, she was deported to Sobibor, where she was killed in the gas chambers immediately upon arrival.[4]
