At the time of this reporting, the cause of Henry Wuga’s death is unknown. His passing has been met with sadness and tributes from those who knew him, with many highlighting his tireless efforts to ensure that the lessons of the Holocaust were never forgotten.

As we mourn the loss of Henry Wuga, we are reminded of the importance of continuing his legacy of remembrance and education. Through honoring his memory and sharing his story, we can ensure that the atrocities of the Holocaust are never repeated and that future generations learn from the mistakes of the past.
