He had a big personality, and he spoke his mind whether you wanted to hear it or not and always said "I did it my way!" Surviving the Holocaust made him live life to the fullest with little regrets. After serving in the Israeli Army as a Paratrooper, he moved his family from Israel to America after the Six-Day War. Ziggy was self-taught and became a successful business owner of textile stores and later retired as a Custom Home Builder in Brownsville, TX. He had many wonderful friends that he loved in Brownsville. Those memories will last "until we meet again."
