My Zaide, the late Berl Izikson, as recorded by the Holocaust project on July 23, 1997. Berl survived Auschwitz - his wife and their son were also Holocaust concentration camp survivors. This is the complete interview.

This was a rough interview, I sense. I am thankful he was able to speak and tell whatever part of his experience he could. Much of what is of the deep, is unspoken, no words are sufficient. Shalom

I am not Jewish but after what happened in France where the Jewish community was attacked once again, as someone who lived in France and currently lives in Germany, where I see on the sidewalks the names in a gold plaque of Jews who used to live here, I wanted to listen to the memories of a survivor. I am glad that Mr. Izikson survived such a terrible time, thank you.
Thank you for sharing your story Mr Izikson. God bless you

Uploader, this is a story that needed telling. Thank you so much for sharing this with me. My adoptive Family was Jewish. Not all of them made it out to America, before Hitler slammed the borders shut. My Mother and Father lived in Lithuania, in Vilna. They described it as a village. Apparently, even if Vilna used to be a village, its a good-sized city nowadays. Again,...thank you for this.

The resilience of these wonderful people is amazing and he never lost his faith in G-D. One can only imagine what a proud, yet heartbreaking moment, his sons bar matzvz ( sorry , it just so t type it correctly!) must have been. How he would have longed for his family and his wife’s family to share in their proud moment. We can’t imagine the terror and the heartbreak they must have faced. But we can not allow their brave testimonies to be in vain. G-D bless you sir, may you Rest In Peace with your wife. I hope you were reunited with your family ( hope that doesn’t offend. It’s meant with the greatest respect) Blessings to the family that he and his lovely wife created. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

Thank you so much for sharing with me an infamous fragment of the Hitler's Nazi horrendous regimen. It must be an odyssey to recount. The crimes and cruelties committed against my sons and daughters, my fathers and mothers, my brothers and sisters hurt me deeply, regardless their ethnicity and nationality. In Isaiah 2: 4, Jehovah God, the Creator and Source of life, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, promises: "He will be judge among the nations and will settle matters in relation to many peoples. They will turn their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. The nations will no longer raise their swords against each other and learn no more to wage war." My immediate neighbors are Jews and I am a Jehovah's Witness. Their hearts are superior than pure gold by far. They are extremely kind. The gentleman takes care of my trash can every Wednesday without my asking him to do so. They are lovely human beings, and they are not in need of the smallest improvement.
