Today, May 4, 2016, is Holocaust Remembrance Day – Yom Hashoah. The State of Israel and Jewish communities around the world will mark the day in memory of the 6 million Jews who were killed during the Shoah. The day is being marked with many ceremonies, all with the Israeli national flag flying at half-mast. Today, before it’s too late, and before they all leave, is the opportunity to listen to some of the survivors stories.
