Josefa Sumper was born on 13 March 1887 in Latschach/Loče near St. Egyden/Št. Ilj. The parish cook supported the partisan resistance against the NS regime under the pseudonym "Veronika." In the spring of 1944, she was arrested and deported to the women's concentration camp Ravensbrück in August of the same year. There, she was murdered on 18 February 1945. On 20 November 1945, a solemn Requiem was held in the parish church of St. Egyden/Št. Ilj in memory of Josefa Sumper. Later, a marble memorial plaque was installed on the southern side of the St. Egyden church.
