It was what had to be done，” Ho said later.
Ho continued to serve as a diplomat⑥ until he retired and went to live in San Francisco, in 1973, where⑦ he died in 1997.During his own lifetime, not only⑧ did Ho's deeds go completely unrecognised⑨， but even his own family was unaware of his efforts.

【识文知意】　何非常同情那些想离开德国的难民。因此，他决定给所有申请者发放签证。没有人知道何发放了多少张上海签证。但据知，到1938年10月，他已发放了近2 000张签证，到1940年他被调回中国时，又发放了数千张签证。“对受迫害者表示同情并帮助他们，这是很自然的事，也是必须要做的事。”何后来说道。
何继续担任外交官，直到1973年退休并前往旧金山居住，他于1997年在那里去世。在他生前，何的善举不仅完全没有得到认可，甚至他自己的家人也不知道他的努力。然而，在他去世后，他的女儿发现了他在拯救这么多人的过程中所起的作用，并决定进行调查。这使得他的英勇事迹在国际上得到了广泛认可。
