Honor the memories

I honor my grandparents, Herbert and Ida Karger, who along with their entire extended family, were murdered during the Holocaust.

They put my dad, Gunther, their only child, on the last train out of Germany, giving him a chance to survive the brutality of the Nazis.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, will you also honor their memory, along with the 6 million other Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust?

Kenneth Karger,

Miami
