Subject: Sir Nicholas Winton - song From: BanjoRay Date: 01 Jul 15 - 06:10 PM Sir Nicholas Winton died today at the age of 106. He's the amazing chap who'd kept a secret for years about how he'd saved nearly 700 Jewish children from Chekoslovakia (sp?) just before the Germans took them away to the death camps. My friend Bob Chiswick wrote this song about him. Ray |
