Ron Rettner welcomes 300 Albanian and Jewish Americans at the Museum of Jewish Heritage as Shirley looks on.
"I am proud to support the work of Joe, Shirley, and the Board of the Albanian American Civic League and Foundation for their tireless work in promoting the story of the Albanian people, who risked their lives to save every Jew who lived in Albanian lands, some for centuries, and the thousands more who were able to escape Nazi-occupied Europe into Kosova and Albania in World War II."
—Ronald Rettner
