When a neighbour’s family, the Maxwells, need a place to hide, Abraham offered up the Bernstein pool house. Stanley, his son first disagreed with him and wasn’t going to allow it until Abraham gave him a heartfelt speech informing his son for the first time that during the Holocaust, Stanley's mother didn’t have a heart attack in the box car like he had been told, but had made it to the camp and died in the showers. Abraham offered that if only someone had given them a place to hide, she would still be alive. Stanley was convinced.
