In this Wednesday, April 11, 2018, photo, childhood Holocaust survivor Simon Gronowski plays "What a Wonderful World" while he and Alice Gerstel Weit tour the Los Angeles Holocaust Museum after their reunion after more than 70 years. After the Nazis invaded Belgium they hid together in the Gronowski family's home before the Gerstel family fled on a perilous journey that eventually led them to the United States. Gronowski's family stayed behind and his mother and sister died at Auschwitz. For 76 years Gerstel Weit didn't know Gronowski was the family's only survivor. [Photo: AP/Reed Saxon]
