of 25 men of women, who watched, helped to prepare, and then dined on a delicious three-course meal. My thanks to Deborah and to Peri Sausmer, Marian Friedmann, Adrianne Greenberg and Susan Meshover for helping to make the event a delicious success.
On Friday, June 4, I had the pleasure of attending Greenport High School's
Honors Breakfast at the Sound View Restaurant. On behalf of the Daughters of Israel, I presented Desiree Freeman with our Catch a Star Literary Scholarship award of $150 for her outstanding work in literary pursuits. Desiree is invited to attend the Catch A Star luncheon, which will take place on Thursday, July 15, also at the Sound View Restaurant.

Each time that I attend this breakfast, I am impressed by the young people in our community and also by the generosity of the North Fork's Greenport community.
I hope you will plan to attend our first business meeting of the season on Thursday, July 8. Look for our postcard reminders in your mailbox.

Sunshine Club


The Sunshine Club sends cards for all occasions. It is an important means of fund raising for the Shul and a nice thing to do. Please call Thelma Novick at (631) 734-6952 .

Do a Mitzvah! Some of our members are homebound and would appreciate receiving a Sunshine card, a note, or a phone call.

Yahrtzeit Remembrance
Gabbai Stanley Rubin

From time to time, we've been asked why we were late in commemorating the death date of a beloved family member.

The answer is that the Jewish calendar is lunar, whereas the secular calendar is solar and thus the dates seldom coincide. From time to time, there is a discrepancy of weeks between the actual death date and the Yahrtzeit anniversary. Please allow for this and know that we make every effort to track the dates to give you sufficient advance notice with a letter and a commemorative candle.

Although this is a costly accommodation, we are happy to provide the service and those donations we receive for it, go toward the maintenance of our beloved Shul.

If you wish to have friends and/or relatives entered on our Yahrtzeit list, please furnish their name and address and we will be happy to be of service.

Best wishes to all.
