Yesterday was a very big day for Joe Rubinstein as he celebrated his 99th birthday! As you can see from this beautiful photo taken of him last week, Joe is doing great (and so is his sweet wife Irene). Joe’s birth certificate, and several WWII era documents, show that Joe was born in 1920, in Radom, Poland. (Earlier in his life, Joe believed his birthday was in October 1922.) Whether Joe is 99 (or 97), he is an amazing man. His life is an inspiration to people around the world in never giving up, no matter the challenges. I’m so grateful for Joe’s life, and that he lived to share his story when so many others, including his entire family from Poland, did not. Joe tells everyone, “Love life. Love God. Love each other. That’s all there is.” God bless Joe!
