Willem ten Boom was a Dutch watchmaker, grandfather to the famous Corrie Ten Boom (and also, incidentally, the name of Corrie's brother) whose family was instrumental in assisting Jewish refugees to safety during the WWII Holocaust. Willem conveyed to his family the values of charity and self-sacrifice, qualities seen in how his descendants were very active in the Dutch underground, hiding refugees. Although his family was Christian, they helped Jews unconditionally, even providing Kosher food and honouring the Sabbath. During any given time in 1943 and into 1944, the ten Boom family averaged 6-7 people illegally living in their home, usually 4 Jews and 2 or 3 members of the Dutch underground. It is estimated that the family saved around 800 Jews during the holocaust.
