Today is the first Yom Hashoah since my grandmother Claire Soria passed last September.
I think of her almost every day when I see some small thing we would have discussed or mentioned. Or after reading a new book or seeing a movie and thinking I can't wait to tell her about it. When i would call, before I could even say anything, she would always say "I was JUST thinking about you!!"
So today Grandma, I am just thinking about you. Doing what my grandma what have done today and every day, share her Holocaust Survivors and Descendants story with as many as I can.
And I am so happy and privileged to know you and talk to you every Friday. And I am so glad that I didn't push off recording your story until it is too late.
So if you are looking for something to honor and inspire you on this Yom HaShoah, try out our conversations at Claire Soria: Born To Remember Podcast - https://www.borntorememberpodcast.com/
I wish today I could call you and hear just one more story.
