WILKES-BARRE -- It was a solemn night at the Jewish Community Center on South River Street in Wilkes-Barre in observance of Yom HaShoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Those who gathered remembered the six million Jewish people who were killed in the Holocaust and prayed for an end to hatred and prejudice.
The guest speaker was Manny Lindenbaum, who is a Holocaust survivor.
The program was co-sponsored by the Jewish Community Center, Congregation Ohav Zedek, Temple B’nai B’rith, and Temple Isreal.
