“No matter what happens in your life, all of the good things you learn from your parents or remember as a child, will come back to you,” said Baum, who is among the people who have shared their stories during talks at The Zekelman Holocaust Center in Farmington Hills that help to foster empathy, tolerance and understanding today.
What he remembers is one Hanukkah as a boy.
