Historical	Although he arrived in the US in 1949 as a Displaced Person, there are no records of him being in any of the camps listed on his gravestone. Multiple records show his date of birth to be February 28, 1924, which would put his Hebrew birthdate on 23 or 24 Adar I 5684. He was previously married to Clyde’s mother.
