Wedding thanks
Bar Mitzvah
Dear Rabbi : I have been watching your videos, and I think you are brilliant! The future of Yiddishkeit , is in the hands of people like you, your newest devotee. J.k.
Hello Rabbi ,
I wanted to thank you for doing such a great job this weekend at Dan and My wedding. We really enjoyed your service during the ketubah signing and during the huppa. We both really enjoyed listening to your stories and thank you for making it so personal for us. So many people came up to us during the wedding and said how enjoyable and personal you made the huppa. Thank you again for helping us during our engagement and for taking the time to teach us about the meaning of the traditions and giving us material to help us make our marriage strong. I hope we will stay in touch.
Thank you again!
Sincerely,
Sara and I can't thank you enough for your role at our wedding. You were just perfect and we both felt so lucky to have you there. We really wanted to have a "Jewish wedding" and you made our dream come true. Everything felt so special and sincere. Your remarks were warm, relevant and sounded like you've known us for a long time. We got a lot of compliments after the wedding about your service and it was well deserved.
Thank you for making our day so special. Hopefully I will see you soon.
Fyi, my younger brother and his fiance really enjoyed your service and so did her parents. Her dad is orthodox and his Rabbi won't do their wedding at the hotel. If it's ok with you, I'll forward your information off to my bother and hopefully he'll contact you. It would be great if you can be a part of his wedding also.
Posted on Facebook page of new Jewish Families: Lonny congrats... I can't believe you are being married by the same Rabbi who just officiated our wedding in Oct. Small world. Enjoy all the wedding planning fun and again congrats!!!
I just wanted to thank you so much for coming to Quincy and being apart of our wedding in October. It meant a lot to Bruce and I that you officiated the wedding since you were the Rabbi that helped me convert. Also, thank you for saving me at the hotel when the limo wouldn't start. Oy what a day that was, classic Murphy's Law...but in the end the ceremony was beautiful and I married my best friend, my bashert. Thank you for everything
Dear Rabbi,
Its been a week since Alex Bar Mitzvah... It was was one of the most beautiful and important days in our life...full of precious moments, emotions and feelings. Thank you Rabbi for the beautiful ceremony, for your presence, warmth of your smile and your big heart :0) All guests were impressed, and they really enjoyed the ceremony. Some of them were really happy to learn more about our beautiful religion :0) Thank you Rabbi for that amazing experience which will stay in my heart forever. We wish you a peaceful and beautiful Shabbat,
Hannah and Alex
FUNERALS
Dear Rabbi, It has been 3 weeks since we spoke and I am still at a loss for words. I want to thank you for all the uplifting words and the funeral. I want to thank you and God for not only restoring my faith but for God bringing you into my life. I have had better days but just thinking of you and how wise and caring you are, makes me smile. Thank you for all that you do and all that you are and for being there for me. I will remember you with love forever.

The course is great! We would recommend it to anyone seeking a path to conversion.
The amount of information is astounding. You put so much work into the course.
We thank you tremendously. David and Cynthia
There are also no words to properly convey the depth of my appreciation to you Rabbis, yet mere words will have to suffice. Thank you for this gift, for which I can never truly repay you. I will instead repay it by living, loving, and learning Jewishly more each day. Rob Feb 8 2009
It was a great course.. and so much fun! You make Judaism seem so easy.. Mary from Monoco.
I am learning so much. I want to be a better human being. The course is really helping me do that.Sylvia from Washington
This is such a well thought out and structured course, enjoyable and thorough, and financially a great deal. Henry
Thanks again for converting me, you changed my life! Also I am an Intern for Hillel, which is amazing! I can't thank you enough!" Rachel
Shalom Rabbi,
Thanks again for everything. I'll have to admit that it was one of the happiest days of my life. I feel like I am starting over as a new man, a Jewish man who needs to be more responsible to be a light to others, if that makes any sense. Anyway, I made it home safe!
Thank you with all my heart! Shalom Aleikhem, Hillel
Rabbi,
Thank you so much! I can hardly express my excitement. Last night I
could not sleep. I was up reading about how the messiah is to come from
the line of King David and trying to make sure I remembered dates. I was
so nervous. The kids were nervous too. We did not need to be, but I
think it was natural to be so. Meeting you and the other Rabbi's was a
gift. All three of you are wonderful men. We have so much yet to learn,
but we have gotten a great start with your online course.
I just could not possibly articulate my thanks in words. Just know that
in my heart this feels right to me. I feel that I am home in Judaism.
You and your course have helped me find my way home.Rabbi thank you so much for your time and efforts. I know that you
are busy people. I just want you to know that your work is
wonderful and a gift to anyone exploring this path.

Dear Rabbi
I just wanted to send you l a short note to say thank you for your guidance and support over the past six months as we went through the conversion process. I didn't know quite what to expect when I arrived in Chicago, but you all made me feel very welcome and included. It was a very moving experience for me (which is probably why I might get the record for taking the longest time to get dressed and reappear after the immersion). It would be impossible for me to probably convey in words how important the event was to me, and what a positive effect it has had, and I believe, will continue to have on my life.
I think the work you are doing is of inestimable value to many people, and I wish you both all of the best in these endeavours for the future. If there is any small way I can assist now or in the future, please just let me know.
With best wishes

Thank you again for all you have done for this family. Your videos and study books that we have poured over, have helped us all to grow in our faith and has confirmed in our hearts that we are doing what is right. We are so excited to be a part of Israel and the Jewish people. We have... bonded even closer as a family. Thank you so much for the work you are doing for those that do not live close to a Jewish community and could not convert if you were not doing what you are doing for so many
I just loved coming to Services and hearing your D'vrei Torah, which were always excellent. I have known many Conservative Rabbis, but you are really one of the best! G. March 2011
