Friday, Jan. 27 is a day of remembrance, as we look back at the horrors of the Holocaust and the lives that were taken. Approximately 6 million Jewish people were killed decades ago has Adolf Hitler rose to power in Germany. Survivors have since shared their stories, including a man living in Charlotte.

Irving Bienstock is 96 years old. He has a picture of him when he was just one year old with his aunt. It's one of the few things he has from his home. He grew up in Nazi Germany, and his family looked for ways to get out.
