HENRY WINKLER REVEALS HOW HIS FATHER HID JEWELRY INSIDE A BOX OF CHOCOLATES TO SAVE THEIR LIVES FROM THE NAZIS😳
“My parents had a six-week work visa and were able to leave Germany for six weeks to come to New York for business. My father never told my mother that he was really thinking of leaving for good.”
“He took my mother’s jewelry and his mother’s jewelry, or pieces of it, melted down a box of chocolate and poured the liquid chocolate over each piece of jewelry. It looked like turtles, you know, the chocolate with nuts.”
“Put it back in the box, let it dry, put the box under his arm, and when the Nazis said, Are you taking anything of value? he said, Open my bags. I have nothing.”
“He pawned the jewelry, was able— now this is to be admired —was able to start the business, the lumber business, importing and exporting wood, bought back the jewelry, and I gave our son the pocket watch that was smuggled out of Germany in chocolate.”

How great is this! The head coach of the men's USA soccer team threw out the first pitch at the Mariners game tonight and he was greeted like a rockstar! 🇺🇸
The late Robin Williams was a comedic genius. An American original & by all accounts a truly decent person who did quiet acts of kindness for total strangers. He was also a patriot who had a beautiful & unique way to show his love for America. God bless him!
