Jacob Biber

My most sincere condolences to the Biber family.
Jacob Biber was a very special man as I am sure they know but I must say it as well.
My Mother Betty Prusak was one of the orphans Jacob Biber taught in the Displaced Persons camp in Germany.
It was one of her greatest joys when through one of his books she found him in Pembroke Pines. Luckily she lived nearby and their friendship was reborn. She felt as if she had found a family member after all those years.
My Mom passed...

I am a paramedic with Medics Ambulance. I had transported Mr Biber on occasion. One of his sons passed on a copy of Survivors to me.

Thank you for the glimpse into your world. Rest well, Jared

To my Dearest Jacob,

The jokes you would tell me every day at your home would always make me laugh and brighten up my day. You will always be in my heart Jacob, I Love and miss you Denise Vaccaro

He was such a wonderful man and treated his workers very well. I had not...

What a pleasure I had in knowing Mr. Jacob Biber for a few years later in his life. I will cherish his kindness, his stories and his faith in humanity. As a grandchild of German Jews, he was inspiring to me as I spoke to many people about him. I will keep my signed copy of Survivors forever along with the signed book of poetry and I will pass on his stories to others.
Fondly,
Dr. Chad Frank
