Story
"They [my grandparents] went through Marseilles and there was a very outstanding American council called Varian Fry, and I’m convinced that they were helped by that person because he helped a lot of people escape.
And he was the council in 'Free France,' or he was based in Marseilles, and he helped them get by train, eventually, along the coast. And they ended up in Spain."
