45 Forward #242 - Seven Years Apart - Love Reborn After WWII - To Enduring Love

A breathtaking true love story that survived ghettos, Bergen-Belsen, seven years of wartime separation, and a near-impossible reunion. Ron talks with Jan—author of To Enduring Love—about her parents, Alexander and Ilona, who met in 1930s Budapest, were torn apart by World War II, and built a hopeful new life in America. (Contains WWII/Holocaust references.)

What you’ll hear
• Budapest meet-cute: an orchestra musician and a coat-check girl who fell in love
• A cinematic separation at a train station—and a promise to reunite
• Cuba, the war, ghettos, and Bergen-Belsen; faith, grit, and survival
• The reunion, immigration to Queens, and the values that shaped a family: hope, education, service
• Jan’s own journey—FAA public service, teaching, and the life formula: Work × Effort = Results
