A Century of Memories with Melvin Hurwitz & Steve Bowersox
We are so excited to be able to finally feature Mr. Melvin Hurwitz being interviewed by Steve Bowersox in a discussion for everyone! This will be a FREE event. We will have light refreshments which will include desserts and beverages (coffee, Coke, Diet Coke, Ginger Ale, and water). Please arrive early. The event will start promptly at 1 pm.
Mr. Hurwitz grew up in Westminster, MD to a family of local jewelry store owners. Melvin graduated from Westminster High School in 1942 and, like his other three brothers, joined the service during World War II. Mr. Hurwitz was a waist gunner and radio man on a B-17 that flew bombing missions over Europe.
More recently Melvin has become a bit of an international celebrity because he attended the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings.
He will celebrate his 100th birthday in March 2025. He will share stories of his life in Westminster and beyond.
