In this presentation, Danya Koplowitz recounts her grandfather's experiences during the Holocaust. Born in 1924 in Ostrowiec, Poland, Jack Borenstein was spared during the mass deportation in 1942 due to a work permit his father secured for him at a local steel factory. He remained there until 1944, when he was deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau and later transferred to Buna, where he was forced to disarm unexploded bombs. Jack endured multiple camp transfers before being liberated on April 30, 1945, at the Feldafing Hitler Youth Camp in Germany. He immigrated to Toronto in 1950, where he built a successful life, running a popular diner and raising a family.
