Cousins Separated During Holocaust Reunited 75 Years Later
When the Nazis invaded Romania during World War II, Simon Phippen was eight years old and his cousin Morris Sneh was ten years old. The cousins, who were also close friends, were forced to part when each of their families fled for their lives from their hometown of Iași, a Mako report said on Sunday. This past weekend, Simon and Morris, together with their children, met in Israel for the first time in 75 years. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room when the cousins embraced.
