Thank you very much.

Please also google the names of "Kiichiro Higuchi", "Koreshige Inuzuka", and "Norihiro Yasue", and other Japanese who worked for helping Jewish people.

Absolutely ! I'm just now learning more about him, he was put there by God to do his work I believe, and man, - he did it !

Sugihara-San inspires beyond belief, if only I could only be 1 percent of what that man was. God bless his soul.
