About the event
July 23 -- Harry Schneider -- Escaped Nazi Terror in World War II. Harry turned 88 in April and lives with his wife in the Daniel Pointe Retirement Community on DI. A recent article in the DI News points out that for two years more than eight decades aga Harry and his family lived deep in the forest between Poland and Russia, sleeping on the ground, foraging for food, dodging gunfire, and running from the Nazis. It is a compelling story which he will share with us this morning. Be sure to read the article in the DI News before you come and watch the YouTube video made by his grandson, Josh Rogers, who is a former news reporter for WCIV-TV in Charleston. Harry is trying to educate people about the perils of hatred and prejudice.
