קָמוּ בָנֶיהָ, וַיְאַשְּׁרוּהָ; בַּעְלָהּ, וַיְהַלְלָהּ

This occasion coincides with 50 years of marriage to the most amazing woman. I have long been proud to be known as "Shifra Hanon's husband," a title from which I derive great happiness and honor. I continue to benefit from your example. We chose the Yeshivah of Flatbush to educate our children because it is a perfect blend of Ashkenazi and Sephardic traditions, Zionism, Jewish ideals, and stellar academics. We have fit in perfectly at the Yeshivah and we are fortunate to have become partners in the education of our children here. As a faculty member, you have always taken the most pride in the personal and professional development of your students and mentees. I have watched you at all hours of day and night, shepherding their education, families, and careers. Yet, somehow, you have balanced your Flatbush family with raising our own children and grandchildren. We are truly blessed.

Vicky & Raymond Harari

We are humbled to dedicate Parashat Kedoshim
in honor of our parents

Rabbi Dr. Raymond and Vicky Harari.

The parashah contains the commandment

כבד את אביך ואת אמך

as well as highlights different ways to live a life of purity and holiness.

Our parents are exemplars of these
characteristics through their work in the
school and the community for the past forty years.

May they continue to be role models to us, our
children, and the community.

Michal & Avi, Yael & Ari, Avi & Zahava, David & Milcah, Dani & Rachel

חֶסֶד וֶאֱמֶת אַל יַעַזְבֻךָ קָשְׁרֵם עַל גַּרְגְּרוֹתֶיךָ כָּתְבֵם עַל לוּחַ לִבֶּךָ

Let not kindness and truth forsake thee; bind them about thy neck, write them upon the table of thy heart (Mishle 3:3) "A teacher affects eternity; she can never tell where her influence stops."

Mom understands that teaching is the catalyst for enduring change. This is as true in the home as it is in the Yeshivah and the Community. Through the force of her spiritual and intellectual energy, we learned curiosity, a love of scholarship, and above all, gemilut chesed. These concepts have a lasting impact on everyone she has touched.

Dear Rabbi Raymond,

Our family's personal friendship spans many decades.

It is rare to know someone with such a humble, and deep sense of
belief, and dedication to Hashem.

From years back when the kids on the block were busy playing
stick ball, you were learning your Bar Mitzvah Parashah, so you
could recite it for your dad A'H. That dedication and deep
understanding of religion has grown with you, to include your
wife Vicky and your children, and grandchildren, and not the
least, all of the children of Yeshivah of Flatbush, that have
grown to love and respect you.

The Chraime Family

With our Deepest Gratitude
for all your service

Dearest Rav Rahameem!

This Sefer Torah written in your honor is very WELL earned!
You've dedicated yourself to Torah and to the community at an early age.

It all started as Ba'al Koreh at Beth Torah even before your Bar Mitzva.

You and I grew up together. Our parents A"H were close friends.

You mentored me before, during and after high school.
You tolerated me as a Room-mate at YU.
Our eldest children have been friends from birth. Both made Aliyah with their spouses and families and they remain close friends to this day.
Your friendship has always been special to me. Princess and I wish you, Vicky, and your family all the best of Hashem's most precious berahot always!
With love and respect,

in a supportive role for many more years to come.

Dearest Shifra,

From the first day we met, as
strangers on the steps of Yeshivah of Flatbush
open house, you greeted us with your signature
warm and welcoming smile.

We have seen and felt first hand your incredible caring and wisdom.

I wouldn't think it is humanly possible to do all that you do.

Being a part of your family has been such a
gift and inspires us to try to do better.

With much love,
