SESSION DESCRIPTION

"Legacy of Rescue: A Daughter's Tribute" tells the story of Marta’s father who was one of 100 Hungarian Jewish men saved by Zoltán Kubinyi, posthumously honored as a Righteous Among the Nations due to Marta’s father’s testimony. The story of rescue came full circle in June 2011 when Marta and her brother took their children back to Hungary to meet Zoltán Kubinyi‘s family. With the rescuer’s son, his wife, and granddaughters – the great grandchildren of Zoltán Kubinyi -- Marta’s family discussed how this courageous man none of them knew has made an indelible impact on all their lives.
