Time flies . . . indeed!

For more than 53 years, Beth El has been my second home and I feel blessed

every day to be a part of this unique congregation. My fellow congregants

have been my extended family – both in reality and in spirit. I salute every

member of our outstanding professional staff - past, and most definitely, present. I am in awe of everything you do for all of us and for Klal Yisrael. You are my

teachers, my inspiration and, I hope, my friends.

With much appreciation and ever-lasting gratitude,
