Mazel tov to all the Honorees on their well deserved honors. and a special mazel tov to
Wendy Gertelman-Nenner!
We are all so proud of You!!
You truly are an Eshet Chayil !!!
Honorees
 
I am truly humbled and deeply grateful to be honored this
evening with the Aishes Chayil award.
 
When I think back to the first Shabbos that I spent in West
Hempstead as a teenager on a shabbaton, I never could have
imagined that a single visit would one day lead me to build my
home here, and certainly not that I would have the privilege of
being honored by this very shul.
 
West Hempstead welcomed me so warmly from the very beginning and
has given me friendship, support, and a true sense of belonging.
 
Any contributions I've made are simply a reflection of how much
this community has given to me.
 
Honorees
Thank you, Rabbi Goller, for your guidance, for always being
there for all of us, and for continuing the legacy of Rabbi
Kelemer zt"l, ensuring that YIWH remains the special shul that it is.
 
During my time as treasurer, I had the privilege of working with
Shulamith Hurwitz, Judy Feldman, Garri Ann Harris, and Tova Isseroff.
 
The role of Sisterhood president is truly a 24/7 commitment, and
I've learned so much from your dedication.
 
To our current presidents, Eli Hausner and Daniella Rosenberg,
thank you for everything you do for the Sisterhood and our
shul-and for this honor.
 
And thank you, Michal Lipschitz, for taking over the role of treasurer.
Honorees
Shulamith, who would have thought that from taking the bus to YCQ together, we would one day both be building our lives here in West Hempstead? I've especially loved co-chairing the Yad Leah clothing drive with you these past four years.
 
A heartfelt thank you to the Dinner Committee for all the time and effort that went into creating such a beautiful evening and for all the you do for the YIWH all year long. Mazel tov to my fellow honorees. Each of you contributes in your own meaningful way to making this community so special.
Honorees
To Rabbi Rosenblum and my Young Israel North family: for
nearly 19 years, my family has been part of your minyan.
We've built lasting friendships and experienced the warmth
of a community that truly feels like family. Thank you to the
YIWH administration for helping us remain
connected to this special minyan.
 
I feel incredibly fortunate for the friendships in my life, those
that span decades and those formed more recently here in
West Hempstead. Especially over the last four years, your
support, your guidance, and simply your presence mean
more to me than I can fully express. Thank you for also
volunteering each year at the Yad Leah clothing drive!
Honorees
Thank you to my parents for being such incredible role models,
and for following me to West Hempstead. My children are so fortunate to
have you close by, and I am deeply grateful for that gift. Thank you as
well to Benji and Jen Gertelman, and to Howard and Rebecca Nenner.
It means so much to me that my children were able to grow up with
cousins nearby, just as I did.
 
To my amazing boys, Yehuda, Ezra, and Aryeh, it is the greatest joy to be
your mother. I am so proud of you and so grateful to have a front-row
seat to your lives. I hope that I have inspired you
as much as you inspire me.
 
And finally, thank you to HaKadosh Baruch Hu for all that I have, for
guiding me to this community and for the countless brachos in my life.

With real appreciation and a lot of affection, we're thrilled to honor our dear friend Michael Levine, recipient of the Rabbi Kelemer ZT"L Harbotzas Torah Award. For decades, Michael has been a steady source of Torah, friendship, and integrity in our lives and in our community. His unwavering commitment to his friends, his family, and to our shul - supported with the grace and devotion of his wife, Simcha - makes him so deserving of this award. A Warm Mazal Tov as well to Sharon & Alan Shulman, our wonderful Guests of Honor, and to the other honorees Lauren & Michael Mandelstam and Wendy Nenner, whose dedication strengthens our shul in so many ways. We also want to express our gratitude to Rabbi Goller and Rabbi Abramovitz for their leadership, guidance, and constant inspiration. May our shul continue to grow as a makom of Torah, Tefillah, and Chesed.
