Carl, you were so right about having tissues ready. Even with them? I was weeping. The video is very well made....but I wish with all my heart that it had never been necessary.I was a child, safe and sound in Boston during WWII. Family HY"D in Vilna were not, alas. I have photos. It still hurts to look at them after so many decades.
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com
