treife, but the money is
kosher."
"If I don't earn, I can't
give. I love to give charity,"
he says. "Everybody wants
the money and every organ-
ization likes to get the
money."
Chief Financial Officer
Louis Glazier describes Mr.
Dorfman as dynamic, saying
he created the massive
corporation by learning how
to delegate and have faith in
those surrounding him in
the business.
"He's got a lot of energy,"
adds Joe Murray, Detroit's
deli and smoke meats plant
manager.
Although he spends fewer
hours at the office these days
(he spends winters on the
golf course and tennis courts
in Florida), retirement
doesn't seem to be on his
mind.
He will spend much time
during the next few months
attending Jewish community
fund-raising events. Joel
Dorfman will chair the an-
nual Holocaust Memorial
Center dinner in November.
He hopes to get in a few
rounds of golf at Franklin
Hills Country Club before
the season ends. His chil-
dren and grandchildren will
break the fast with him at
his home.
"I am not thinking about
retirement. How could I? I
wouldn't know how."
A large frame on his office
wall at corporate head-
quarters holds several
licenses certifying ritual
kosher slaughter and
delivery of kosher meats.
They are printed in German
with accompanying English
translations.
The certificates are a cons-
tant reminder of his past.
He cries when he talks
about the war. He can't read
about the Holocaust and he
can't sit through a film. But
he has taken his children
through museums and to the
camps in Eastern Europe.
He wants them to under-
stand what happened.
"I lived it. I was there," he
says. "It hurts too much to
read about it, or to watch
films about it."
Every once in a while, he
takes a walk through the
Holocaust Memorial Center
in West Bloomfield, one of
his major financial com-
mitments. Unlike other sur-
vivors, whose stories have
been repeated on film for
Holocaust Memorial Center
visitors, Henry Dorfman
hasn't been able to speak on
camera.
He says he is considering
that option.
He has been a philan-

thropist most of his days in
America, receiving many
awards and honors from the
Jewish community for his
devotion and generosity.
"If you earn, you can
give," he says. "Fat cats
don't catch no mice."
He remembers the difficult
times when he lived through
the war, going days at a time
without food. "But it was
more than they had in the
camps."
One visit to the Holocaust
Center leaves him feeling
sick for two days.
"I go there because I don't
want to forget where I came
from. I don't want to
forget." ❑
