"My parents had a store in Krakow and we sold fruit, candy, beer, sandwiches, soda and such. We lived in the back of the store, and when people came to visit patients, they'd buy an orange, grapes or candy to bring to the patience or refreshments for themselves after traveling some distance...Many times we'd get up in the morning and find some of the signboards on our store defaced with paint. The message read, "Do not buy from Jews"; "Jews, go to Palestine"; "We urge you to buy from your own."

"... [Helen Shein] was gorgeous and smart. Helen had been brought up in a very religious home and we lived in the same building on Zamoyskiego 10.
