Today I chose the name of my uncle, Isaac de Jong, born on 20 March 1908 in Nijmegen. The reason why I chose him rather than the others in my family who didn’t survive the war is as follows.
He was a deaf-and-dumb child who went to school in Amsterdam and Groningen. Just imagine how much more difficult it was for people like him to witness what was happening all around him.
