Just like h.franco from NY my family also was from Rhodes. Asa soon as the deportations had started all of the Jewish homes were happily taken by the Greeks. When some survivors later returned there was no wellcome.
To learn more about the Jews of Rhodes you can read `Jewish Martyrs of Rhodes and Cos` by Heskiah Franko and `Il eteait une fois D`ille des roses` by her doughter Elise Franco as well as several books by Rabbi Mark Angel of LA. |
