I had the pleasure of knowing Amek for a short time through both the Holocaust Education Centre as well as living in the same building. Amek contributed greatly and left his mark on everyone he met, whether through speaking to groups as a holocaust survivor or serving on the condo board. He will be missed everywhere. May his memory be a blessing.

I met Amek on the March of the Living in 2008 and we became fast friends. I often spoke with him on the phone and we had lunch several times throughout the years . He was a wonderful man and he will be missed by all who knew him. His legacy will live on through his words, ideals and inspiration which he brought to all those he came in contact with and to the 1000's of students he met. Rest in peace Amek, it was an honour and a privilege to know you.

Amek made a deep and lasting impression on me during the time we spent together in Poland on the 2009 March of the Living. He was a kind, insightful and soothing presence for all of the students and chaperones. He was there for me at moments of inconsolable sadness when his strength and support made me feel safer. It was as if he lifted the emotional burden off of me and shifted it quietly onto himself. Amek was a truly remarkable human being. May his memory be for a blessing.

We did and our lives were made richer for having known him.

Amek was the survivor on my March of the Living bus in 2009. I was touched by his words and his bravery. He had a profound impact on anyone who heard him speak. I reached out to Amek a year later to ask him if he would mind speaking at my high school in front of my sister's class. He said yes without a doubt and once again I was able to see the impact that his story had on dozens of students. He was incredibly kind and gentle and became a comfort to those that were grieving his experience. I will remember him fondly and he will be sorely missed. May his memory be a blessing. My sincerest condolences to his family.

To the family of Amek Adler: I had the distinct pleasure and honour to spend time with Amek whilst volunteering at the Jewish War Vets Office a few years ago. He shared his personal story with me, his survival from the Shoa and his work with the Holocaust Remembrance Committee and his soldiering skills with the Resistance during WW2. I felt honoured to spend the time and to help him in the office for the short time that I did. He was an unforgettable gentleman and I am richer for having gotten to know him, if only for a short time. May you his family be comforted with all the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem and know no more sorrow and may your wonderful memories of Amek sustain you for all time. Janice Lebow

His loss is certainly being felt across the entire Toronto Jewish community, indicating what a meaningful impact he made on so many people. Zichrono Livracha.

I truly cannot believe that one of my biggest heroes is no longer with us. I will always remember the twinkle in Amek's eyes and the comfort in my heart each time we got together for lunch or a special Holocaust- related project and for my 30th birthday with Ruth. He always felt confident that me and his fan club members would do the work and remember his and the story of others. The last time I saw him, he told me, "Remember, the most important thing is to be happy" - and that he always was. I feel honoured to have known him and to have been part of his circle of friends. All of my love to his family and friends, especially Ruth. May his memory be a blessing and may we all take part in carrying out his powerful legacy.

I met Amek back in the summer of 2009 after returning from a school trip to Poland and Auschwitz-Birkenau to learn about the Holocaust. As part of our trip, each individual was provided with a letter from a Holocaust survivor, and I was given Amek's letter. Upon returning we had the opportunity to meet the authors of our letters. Amek's warm and loving demeanour immediately endeared me to him, and his story had a profound impact on me. I will continue to share Amek's story, to keep him alive in my heart and mind, and to bear witness to the Holocaust, just as he had asked of me many years ago. I am truly honoured to have met such an amazing person, he was a blessing to me. Godspeed Amek.

I had the incredible privilege of meeting Amek as a madrich on the march of the living. While training in Kingston the Rabbi shared one of the most incredible and inspiring stories of survival with the MOL staff and volunteers from across Canada. I noticed the man next to me was becoming extremely emotional. The Rabbi ended by saying "and that man's name is Amek Adler" . It was him beside me. This larger than life hero impressed me greatly with his kindness, strength, humor, warmth and humanity. My life was touched by Amek as were thousands of others through his speaking, leadership and sense of responsibility to keeping the truth alive. His passing is a loss that will be felt by so many, now and for years to come May his memory be a blessing

To the Adler family. I had the honour and pleasure of working with Abram Amek while I was representing the Sarah and Haim Neuberger Hololcaust and Memorial Centre for 25 years, as a museum educator and docent. He was a wonderful and gifted speaker, who told his story to the school classes, that came in to hear "a guest speaker" tell their persoanl story. He kept the classes in their seats, and haning on to every work that he, said, while he so eloquently went into details of how he had fought for, lived through, inorder to survive the horrors that he had faced. Abrams voice might now be silent, but the words and the details of what he had "spoken about" his personal story, will always be remembered. And as a child of Holocaust survivors myself, he will be remembered as a gentle man of great courage, and s shining example of "life".
