Ottilie Mahler (Nohel) - Descendants of Ottilie Mahler?

Does anyone know how to get into communication with descendants of Ottilie Mahler? I have copies of letters that she wrote to my grandaunt Elsie Stastny, born Rind, who was a friend of hers (I believe that they were in school together). The letters date from 1939 and 1940. I have put a lot of time into figuring out the personal references in the letters. I believe that the letters would be of interest to Ottilie's descendants, if there are any still living. I know that Ottilie's daughter Eva escaped to Israel and married there, and her profile indicates that she had two children, whose identities are not revealed on this site---which I take to indicate that they are still alive.

I should have said "escaped to Eretz Yisrael" rather than "escaped to Israel." In the letters Ottilie reports that she is making arrangements to send her son Michael there too, as an agricultural worker. Unfortunately, the plan failed.

There should be several.
