Mrs.Shklare & family,
I didn't get to know Mr. Sklare personaly. Neverthelles, I can tell he was a wonderful man. Thanks to him I can study the profession I always wanted to have. I can't find the words to tell how much my life changed thanks to him.
I could'nt recieve high education, if it wasn't for him. I sincerely hope that his kindness will inspire others to continue his mission of helping demobilized soldiers to fulfill their dreams and manage their civilian life.
