and said that when he mar-
ried, the minister recited the
146th Psalm: "Happy is the
man who has the God of
Jacob for his help."
Mrs. Chorazyczewski, sup-
ported by her son Cezary,
was in tears when the son of
Abraham Kashdan, the
teen-ager whose life she sav-
ed, approached her during
the award presentation.
Photos of Mr. Kashdan
covered a poster in the hall
where the program was held.
Several pictures showed Mr.
Kashdan as a child with his
parents and grandparents.
Another photo, hand colored,
showed him as a young man
who closely resembled actor
Gary Cooper.
Near the Kashdan poster
was a different placard,
showing those Jews who did
not find a Mrs. Chorazyc-
zewski, an Adriana or Peter
Termaat. Men, women and
children lay broken and
bludgeoned in a mass Nazi
grave.
For the ADL's Mr. Fox-
man, this week's ceremony
was more than just another
speaking engagement. He,
too, was saved by a gentile
during the-Holocaust. When

the Nazis invaded
Lithuania, Mr. Foxman's
father, Joseph, and mother,
Helen, were ordered to the
Vilna Ghetto. Their son, Ab-
raham, was 2.
"My parents. made a deci-
sion they could never ex-
plain," he said. "They decid-
ed to leave me with my
nanny."
Mr. Foxman said he
doesn't think his parents
ever imagined the war
would last for so long, or
could conceive the curious
set of circumstances that
would follow his placement
with the nanny.

Both Mr. Foxman's
parents survived the war
and came looking for their
son in 1945, when Joseph
was liberated from a concen-
tration camp in Estonia. But
the nanny was not about to
give Abraham up. "He
belongs to me," she said.
The Foxmans were forced
to go to court to regain
custody of their son —a vic-
tory that was short-lived.
After being reunited with
his parents in Poland, Abra-
ham was kidnapped by his
nanny. Later, his parents
managed to get their son
back and immigrated to the
United States.

Abraham Foxman:
Righteous Gentiles "rescued the
conscience and reputation of
mankind."

"My father used to say,
`Everything in excess is no
good,' " Mr. Foxman said.
"It was too much love that
led to that tragedy."

Joseph and Helen Foxman
tried to maintain contact
with the nanny, sending her
letters and packages from
the United States, but she
never responded. In 1958,
the correspondence was no
longer accepted, and the
family assumed the woman
died.
"I never had the oppor-
tunity to thank or acknowl-
edge her," Mr. Foxman
said. ❑

Sinai Hospital
Financial Gifts

Sinai Hospital received two
financial gifts from friends of
the Detroit-based hospital.
Former Sinai Hosital on-
cology patient Mary Spaul-
ding bequeathed her entire
estate of $83,384.87 to Sinai
oncology research.

Miss Spaulding, a resident
of Lathrup Village, was
diagnosed with terminal
bladder cancer and was
treated at Sinai Hospital. She
died Aug. 15, 1989. Miss
Spaulding requested the
funds be given to the Sinai
Hospital Research Institute
for cancer research.

The Sinai Hospital Guild
Medical Endowment Fund
has received an $80,000 be-
quest from the estate of An-
na Ruth Solomon to establish
the Anna Ruth, Helen and
Lena Solomon and Esther
Solomon Krause Memorial
Fund. Interest from the prin-
cipal of this fund will support
medical research at Sinai.
