Sonia Orbuch, who survived the Holocaust in eastern Europe by joining a partisan band to fight the Germans, died last Sunday at home in Corte Madera. She was 93. In her later years, Orbuch was an author and gave public talks about her life during the war. “She deeply touched young people in particular, teens who were the same age as Sonia when she fled to the forest and fought back,” Fred Rosenbaum, a longtime friend, said in a eulogy delivered at her funeral service Wednesday.
