He was my great uncle and such an amazing special person. He passed away this past Thursday and will be very much missed.
I am so sorry for your loss. He is at peace with God. Maybe he got his bar mitzpah.
So sorry for your loss.
May his memory be a blessing!
David was a true blessing to the Grand Rapids Community where he ran a fine men's clothing store. A true testimony of overcoming and perseverance. I recall Fox Television playing his testimony in the early 90's. I believe it was called The Fire Within. I am now and was then greatly encouraged by his courage to share his story. May we learn from history, that history might not repeat itself. Shalom my friend, and thanks for taking the time many years ago to speak with me personally about your life. Know today that the fire within still burns as I teach my students yearly about the Holocaust. You are not forgotten!
I knew David in Grand Rapids, Michigan in the 1960's when he owned his men's store. He was always kind and sometimes drove me home from work when I missed the bus. I knew of his experience during the Holocaust. and I having been born in London in 1944 had a lot in common. Thank you for sharing your story David. The world must never forget how these events happened. Thanks to your courage we won't let it happen. Sandy Johnson Arnold
David is a hero and a true survivor. I am thankful he found his father and they were able to make a life for themselves. I am thankful his father found someone who took care of him and that his brother also made a life for himself. God bless you David. David made his own choices in his life after the Holocaust. I’m glad he was able to retire and go on with his life however he chooses. Take care dear David. You deserve all the best..
The terror he relived telling story is palpable.. I met Mr Mandel years ago.. I knew a bit of his background- but this retelling had me in tears.
#neveragain
David’s pain is still so raw it’s heartbreaking , I really hope he finds peace in his heart x
Amazing testimony from an amazing man
I worked for David in Grand Rapids in the late 1980's and so I am familiar with his amazing story. People in our society would like to make this (Halocaust) a Jewish thing - it is not.
It must never be forgotten so that it doesn't happen again. I was born in 1965 think about that. That means Hitler died only 20 years before I was born...we aren't talking about ancient history. I moved from Grand Rapids to Chicago in May of 1991 and have been practicing law here for 30 years. I lost my mentor, employer and dear friend Tom Vaughn to cancer on Thanksgiving Day 2020. Tom happened to be Black. Because of the amazing people i've met in my life like David and Tom I have very little tolerance for anti-semitism, racism, bigotry or bullies. These are character flaws and have no place in a civilized society. These issues are not jewish or black issues, they are OUR issues to take responsibility for and then work through together. It is worth the effort. God bless David and Tom's spirits.
As David is telling his story you can feel his sadness and his broken heart. I only wish he had made a family of his own, children bring life and happiness. He brought tears to my eyes.
What a lovely, articulate, respectful gentleman.
Did he get to Israel for his Bar Mitzvah? Someone here must know him.
His story was hard to hear, but I’m glad that Listened.
The interviewer was great.
This survivor gave a very heartfelt account of what happened to him and his family. His descriptions were vivid. I could picture everything he spoke about.
I could hear his pain after he told of the fate of his Mom and younger siblings. But also his relief to see his Dad and have a brother return to them.
The interviewer was not too bad. She mostly let him speak, which was good.
It was a good narrative.
true tears are for all you family mr mandell ,
wow
