Here he is: (from http://kehilalinks.jewishgen.org/krakow ... indler.htm )
2 38 Ju. Po. 68861 KINSTLINGER Henryk 11.11.15 ang. Metallverarb.

Before the holocaust My father's mother was married with 5 children–she lost her husband and all her kids to Hitler. My father's father was married with 6 children and he lost his wife and all his children to Hitler. After having lost their entire families they met for the first time in Auschwitz and promised each other that if they both made it out alive they would meet up at a certain place and time and get married. He was saved by Schindler and she made it out somehow too and they got married and had my dad and his sister.

My father and mother are my heros and there's nothing he wouldn't do for our family. My parents had 7 kids. 3 of them are married with 2 kids each and are spread out in Australia, Israel and South Africa.

Thanks to Schindler there's about 20 of us running around living a beautiful and plentiful life.

In regards to the holocaust - NEVER AGAIN.
Jem, I am sorry about my facile response earlier. Fact is, this is overwhelming and there is no appropriate response. So glad your grand parents survived. So sorry for what they went through.

Can't bring myself to leave my usual smiley face here. I am deeply moved.

Cheers Steve, this did happen many years ago and it's not something that our family dwells on at all. We are just thankful that we are all here and it shows how much good can come from one person. Imagine if the whole world got together to eradicate evil and hatred.

We are all one and the same and here for such a short period of time so there's no place for contempt amongst men. Live loud and free!!

As I'm also a descendant of an survivor of the Armenian genocide I see it like Jemook...We are all one and the same ... We should respect each other and join our forces to do things for the good of all mankind...

happy and successful week
