Thursday, May 5, 2016
4 p.m. & 7 p.m.
Details:
Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, brings to the forefront events that took
place more than 75 years ago, but which are remembered on a daily basis by those
who survived this unprecedented assault on the Jews of Europe. Join us as we
respectfully honor the memory of the six million victims, salute those who risked their
lives to aid Jews, recall the heroism of liberators, and thank the survivors for sharing
their stories so that we might learn.
The program will feature a performance by virtuoso violinist David Lisker, as well as
piano, cello and soprano pieces. There will be candle lighting by survivors and their
descendants, Kaddish, and El Malei Rachamim chanted by cantorial soloist Adam Davis
of Congregation Sukkat Shalom. The program will be presented twice; the first
presentation begins at 4 p.m. and will be repeated at 7 p.m.
Reservations required.

Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony
Friday, May 6, 2016
12 p.m.
Details:
The City of Carmel would like to invite you to attend the 2016 City of Carmel’s Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony on May 6th, at Noon at Booth Tarkington Theatre -
Three Center Green in Carmel. 2016 Speaker: Tibor Klopfer - Second Generation. Title
of presentation — “One Family’s Experience". His parents, Manci and Michael Klopfer
were from Hungary and were imprisoned in concentration camps in Poland and
Germany. In July of 1944, his mother was deported from a rural ghetto in Hungary to
Auschwitz-Birkenau. Five weeks later, she was taken to a slave labor camp at Guben.
Late in the winter, as Soviet troops advanced toward Guben on their way to Berlin,
German solders forced Manci and others to leave Guben by foot. His father lost all of
his immediate family, including his first wife and two young daughters. He spent much of
the war in Hungarian and German forced labor camps. His presentation of his family’s experiences puts human faces on historical events and opens the door to a
comprehension of the Holocaust and World War II history that goes beyond sterile
renditions of dates, events and statistics.

Yom HaShoah /Holocaust Memorial Services with Jack Pariser
Friday, May 6, 2016
8 – 9 p.m.
Details:
Yom HaShoah/Holocaust Memorial services will be led by Rabbi Rachlis and Cantor
Braier with University Synagogue member, Julie Metz, playing the theme to Schindler’s List on the violin. Each year this service is haunting with the prayers recited rather than
chanted and the only music is Shoah-related.
Holocaust survivor, educator and scientist, Jack Pariser, will speak on “From a Nine
Year Old Sub-Person to a Preclude Genocide Activist.” Jack Pariser was born in 1929 in Poland, south of Krakow. When the Nazis began terrorizing Jews in 1939, his
grandfathers were beaten to death for refusing to walk on the Torah. In early August
1942, Mr. Pariser’s mother learned that the Germans were planning to murder the town’s Jews the next day, and the family fled, hiding for months in the forest.
They were rescued by a Christian who had worked for Mr. Pariser’s father and were hidden in a bunker under a woodshed floor. When they eventually moved to another
hiding place they were betrayed and arrested by Polish police. They escaped from jail
by cutting through a wall with a pen knife and were again protected by non-Jews until
the war ended in 1945.
The family moved to the United States in 1949, and Mr. Pariser went on to become
chief scientist at Hughes Aircraft, from where he retired in 1987. He has supervised the
collection of over 150 Holocaust victims’ video interviews. Sponsored by Tom and Andra Ellingson.
