My grandfather was saved by Sugihara together with the rest of the Mir Yeshiva (Rabbinical College). I am forever grateful to him.


Mine too. It's quite a surprise to see him show up on HN. Such a simple deed with such huge significance. It reminds me to think about what I might be able to do that could end up being life-changing for others someday.

It's a shame that he lost his career over it. I'm glad to see him finally getting the recognition he deserves.


My wife's grandfather and his family as well. Sugihara is an honored name in our home.


What a great man he is, When a niche site like this gets multiple accounts from people whose lives were positively impacted by him especially on a slow day(HN visits are low during weekends).
