My father was born August 15, 1919 in Szczecinski, Poland. He had three brothers and three sisters. As the Nazis were approaching Poland, his parents sent him to live with a sister and her family. He was captured and was a prisoner in five concentration camps and liberated from Gross Rosen. He came to the United States via the port of Baltimore. He moved to Boyle Heights, California, and lived across the street from the Breed Street Shul. He met my mother Ethel on a blind date. They had three children. My father was a very religious man and went to Shul several times a week for his entire life.
