Tributes are being paid to a Holocaust survivor after his death aged 96. Jack Aizenberg, who survived multiple Nazi labour and concentration camps, was a much-loved and hugely-respected father-of-two with three grandchildren.
An inspiration to all who heard him speak, Jack sadly passed away on Tuesday. His message was simple: That the horrors of the Holocaust should never be forgotten and the world should live in peace.
Jack, who lived in Whitefield, Bury, with his beloved wife, Rhona, was one of around 300 young Jewish orphans who were brought to Cumbria in 1945 - the 'Windermere Boys'. In a BBC documentary aired in 2010, he described his journey as 'like going from hell to paradise'.
