Biography
Simon Kalderon was born May 15, 1938 in Travnik, Bosnia (Yugoslavia), to Avram and Berta Kalderon. In March 1943, father, mother, Flora and brother Simon were imprisoned as refugees at KZ Kavaja, Albania, under Italian rule, where they lived relatively safe. After the German occupation in Sept 1943, the Kalderons remained in hiding in Albania, until the end of the war. In July 1944 they sailed from Naples, Italy to Fort Ontario (Oswego), United States.
