Imagine being reunited after 80 years...

It happened at a Holocaust event at The John Carroll School in Belair, MD.

Steve DiBiagio was giving a presentation about his father, a Concentration Camp liberator during World War II. Dr. Steve Salzberg, listening in the audience, jumped up and shouted, "your father liberated my father!" The two men embraced, and the reunion would change their lives forever. Mr. DiBiagio and Dr. Salzberg will be joined by Merle Silberstrom Ross sharing her experience being born in a Displaced Persons Camp - and what happened to survivors after liberation.

Join us to hear their remarkable stories​
