Williamsville, NY – A Williamsville woman recalls what life was like during the Holocaust years while growing up in a small German town. 85 year old Joan Lorch Staple is a retired Canisius College biology professor. The first 30 years of her life are outlined in a series of stories in a book she wrote called Chance and Choice.
Staple reflects on a time when Adolph Hitler's Nazi regime stripped her father from his top management job at a major appliance manufacturer in Germany. The family fled from their mansion to England in 1938. Staple recently sat down with retired Buffalo radio newsman Ray Marks about her memoirs.
