Yes, RIP Eli Wiesel. He was truly a great man and Nobel Prize laureate plus a survivor of the Holocaust.

He spoke at my middle school when I was a student there. Unfortunately most of what he said was lost on my classmates as they couldn't comprehend what he was telling us, not being able to relate to the horrors he experienced. I wanted to tell him that I am Jewish and understand but was a little too shy and realized that I too could not fully understand the world he came from being that I'm also an American who is very fortunate to live in a country and time spared from Hitler's Germany. RIP Mr. Weisel and G-D bless you!

So very sad...he lived through so much and turned out to be such a great man.  He will be missed.

I read his book several years ago. It's a real eye opener.   :notworthy:
