As you are no doubt aware, Elie Wiesel, Holocaust survivor, Nobel Prize winner and conscience of the world, passed away earlier this month.
Elie Wiesel attended the first March of the Living in 1988, then again in 1990, and several times after that. Below is the link to the personal reflections - "He Forever Touched My Life" - of Habonim member Eynat Katz from her first encounter with Elie Wiesel as a teenager on the 1988 March of the Living.
Also below is the link to my own story - "The Day Words Failed Elie Wiesel" - from my first experience with Elie Wiesel on the 1990 March of the Living which appears in this week's Canadian Jewish News.
Elie Wiesel’s eloquent words taught millions of people around the world about the history and lessons of the Shoah.
May his remarkable legacy live on long into the future.
