When my Mom told me the story, I said “who is this man that said I don't like Communists”? She said that she didn't really know, she only knew he was there when she got there and was Hungarian. He never said much and she didn't know if he had Alzheimer's or what. A nurse over heard us and said he had grown up in Hungary, got out and came to the US in the 1960’s and had been an Economics Professor! Even in his golden years, he recognizes a Communist when he sees one!
We had a Hungarian family behind us in California when I was a kid. They didn’t like leftists, either and adored my dad because he’d fought the communists in Korea and Vietnam.
