We're all so proud we could just kvell.

Ilene was Sisterhood President, worked the Dinner Committee for many years,

Raised 3 kids and now's a grandma

Smiles through Steve's jokes despite what she hears.

Steve was on the Boards of Men's Club then the Shul. He was the funniest President we ever found.

He spearheaded our capital campaign

So our shul's future is fiscally sound.

Moshe Gutman's not yet a Board member
But works tirelessly day and night,
Fixed the HVAC and electrical
And made our shul efficiently bright.

Chany and Michael Chapman

Young Leadership honorees,

They've worked hard to help our community grow

Their Shabbos meals with brisket always please.
