I sincerely believe that this is the last chance to keep this island community, older than the nation itself, from slipping away into history.

I so believe that older women have tremendous value to their families, their community, their country, the world.

Life itself is exponential.

I sincerely apologize to the nation for using erroneous data in the papers.

Some good turns are big and some are small, but we believe they are all valuable to our community.

The most significant and poignant part of the event is it's our chance every year for the entire synagogue community, federation community and general community to come together for one magnificent day at one magnificent event.
