Erna Gabarsky was born on July 29, 1921 in Frankfurt am Main.

She worked in 1936 and 1937 as housemaid in Bergzabern. She left in 1937 to Busenberg/Dahn.

At the age of 17 years, she began an internship in the Home of the Jewish Women's Association in October 1938. With a short interruption in the spring and early summer, 1939 she worked till to February 1941 at „Heim Isenburg“ In 1942 she married Herbert Falk and moved with him to Wallau am Taunus.

Erna Falk and her husband were deported on June 11, 1942, from Frankfurt to the district of Lublin. 30-year-old Herbert Falk was presumably selected there as one of the men operable to hard labor in the concentration camp Majdanek. The rest of the men, women and children were - probably with a stopover in Ghetto Izbica - deported to the extermination camp Sobibor, and were killed within a few hours (Kingreen, Gewaltsam verschleppt, S. 373 f.). The 21-year-old Erna Falk was among them. Her husband also was a victim of the Shoah.
