Rabbi’s Message Tany The storm hit on that day when you left us sending up a sea of waves that still overtake me suddenly when I lie down and when I rise up and when I go on the way salty waves of pain that cloud my eyes and then I see your face like when we said goodbye serene framed by sandy pine wood and a pure white foamlike shroud and your dreamy eyes like an angel trying to help us see a break in the clouds a ray of light ahead Uncle Claudio

expressions of condolences and support received during

The Hebrew School year came to an end on June 10 as the students eagerly awaited the summer hiatus.

The parents joined their children in the Beis Hamidrash as Rabbi Kupchik

led everyone in the morning minyan. The end of term ceremony followed in the library where special awards

were given acknowledging outstanding performances by Ronald Ditchek, Sam Kheysin, Ryan Eberman, and Kenny Levy.

Teachers Raziel Moussafi and Elaine Zimmerman took part in distributing

the certificates. Mr. Moussafi, who taught the upper class will be leaving Temple Beth El after 4 years to follow a different path. We are all sorry to see him leave.

The proceedings came to an end with the serving of refreshments to amidst lots of hugs and picture taking. We look forward to a healthy, happy summer and a resumption of our school year in September. Notices will be sent out announcing registration and the first day of school for the 2012- 2013 year. Bob Levine School Liaison

Rabbi Claudio J. Kupchik, Elaine Zimmerman, Bob Levine, Raziel Moussafi, Ronald Ditchek, Sam Kheysin, Ryan Eberman, Kenny Levy

This is the time of the year when schools and organizations have their end of year celebration.

And so it was with Temple Beth El on May 30th, 2012. At this congregational supperette,

Chairperson Lenny Finkel and President Dr. Miles Kahan welcomed all the Temple members who

came. Rabbi Kupchik delivered his message prior to our eating supper.

Lenny Finkel called upon the chair persons of the Temple’s various committees for their annual

reports. Bob Levine wore two hats that night. In the absence of Bill Katz, Bob reported our financial

status which was provided by Bill. As School Liaison, Bob announced that our religious school is

desperately in need of students. Dolores Measer’s

membership report was equally weak on growth. Muriel

Ellenberg, Sisterhood President, presented its annual

contribution to Temple’s coffers. Harvey Lerner appealed

to all Temple members, present and absent for their

attendance at services, involvements in activities provided

by the different arms of Temple and providing public

relations input welcoming new members into this

community.

Muriel Ellenberg was called upon to present a

plaque to Maureen Lerner for her many years of dedicated contribution to Temple Beth El.

The legal part of the evening was professionally handled by Judge Allan Marrus. After calling

for additional recommendations to the Board, he officially discharged the current board which was then

sworn in.

The dessert which followed ended the congregational meeting of 2012.
