ECI Customer, Holocaust Survivor. Levittown Legend. A Story You Have to Hear.

Last week we received an emergency service call from one of our long time customers in Levittown. One who just happens to have and amazing and inspirational life story. His name is David Wisnia and his call was concerning pipes bursting at his home. But, his amazing story is about a different set of pipes. A set that would eventually save his life from a Nazi concentration camp.

About 30 years ago I was sent to David Wisnia's house, in the Red Rose Gate section, to service his heater. While there, I was fortunate enough to get to know David and hear his remarkable story of Holocaust survival. His story is one of those kinds that stick with you forever. 

Recently the Philadelphia Inquirer published an article about his story as he was preparing to be an honored guest at yesterday's 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz event (January 27th, 2015). It's a great article and does a good job of telling his improbable tale of survival. But, it's even better when you hear the tale told by Mr. Wisnia, himself, in the video below.

A couple of years ago I partnered with Comfort Media Group and Dan Kelly Films to produce the video below. In it "Little Davy" relates the account of his harrowing time during the Holocaust, unlikely survival and eventual joining with the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division. 

It was no surprise to us that Dave Wisnia's story would touch so many others in the community and elsewhere. Levittown Patch even interviewed us about interviewing him

As a tribute to David, his family and yesterday's 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, we'd like to, again, share this truly inspirational and astounding story brilliantly told by the Levittown Legend himself.
