A CARD FROM THE CALENDAR - MARIA AND FRANCIS FORYS

You are here:

It was late in the evening. Maria was astounded to see six additional people on the cart that her husband, Franciszek, drove home. These were the three generations of a single family, including two little children, Marcel and Henryk. This Jewish family had escaped the bombardment of Lublin and turned out to be friends with the Foryśes’ cousins. For a couple of weeks, the Abents lived in the Foryśes farmstead, successfully avoiding German checks and searches. After some time, they went further east.
