Solly Gaynor met Chiune Sugihara in 1940 when he, along with his family, was seeking refuge from the Nazis in Lithuania. Sugihara, a Japanese diplomat, was issuing transit visas to help Jewish refugees escape to safety. Gaynor and his family approached Sugihara's consulate, where he compassionately granted them visas, allowing them to flee to Japan. This meeting became a pivotal moment in Gaynor's life, as Sugihara's actions ultimately saved many lives during the Holocaust.
