Hello all!

I will be giving a presentation at the Library. How did they learn about this amazing story. It all started when John and Evi contacted me. They were also saved in Italy, along with their friend Henry. Another story of survival!

They were so kind and invited me to visit. We had a wonderful time and I discovered something! Evi’s father was in Campagna! He was not on “The List” date September 16, 1940 because he left Campagna at the beginning of September! A Kansas City – Campagna Connection! Wow! One thing led to another – result – this wonderful event. There is so much more I can say – more documents, more pictures…I will fill you in…

More Survivors

Hello all.

I am still not very good at this blog thing…but that is another story. What is important is to let you know that I have met more Jews who survived in Italy in the last few months. In addition to taping their stories, I have had the privilege to obtain additional documents – documents that once again show how in most of Italy – the Jews were treated with dignity and respect. There are also documents that show the committment Jews had to education – even in a concentration camp.

Thank you for following this amazing story of goodness amidst evil.
