A Series of Miracles: George’s Story of Survival as a Hidden Child
Online 12:00 PM
January 27, 2025 to January 27, 2025
George miraculously survived the Holocaust in France by being hidden by a family friend while his parents were deported to Auschwitz. After the war, he was adopted by his great-uncle in Los Angeles, where he went on to build a successful life as a dentist, marrying, and raising two children. He now has five grandchildren and considers his life to be a series of miracles.
