Arthur z”l turned 92 on October 12th.
Together we celebrated his 92nd birthday with a books launch birthday party.
Reb Arthur, Reb Phyllis, Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie, Rabbi / Kohenet Jill Hammer, Rabbi Shefa Gold, Rabbi Elyse Wechterman, and Student Rabbi Hadasah Yaqob-Johnson were featured speakers.
Music was performed by Batya Levine and Rabbi Nate DeGroot hosted. There was cake.
It was a deeply moving and heartfelt program and a great blessing to be with and celebrate Arthur for this great accomplishment on his 92nd birthday!
