missing this weekend's breakfast

[Ken Horwitz]

Gentlemen:

I wanted to take a moment and apologize for missing this weekend's BH breakfast and

annual meeting. For anyone who doesn't already know, my daughter is graduating from college this Sunday

and I plan to be there. :)

But I realize it's an important breakfast and I do feel bad about missing it. I'm comforted by the fact that Barry

does a fine job as host in my absence.

A few pieces of BH business:

FYI - we have 2 new BH trustees who are ready to take the plunge and join our ranks. 

Darren Milun and Steven Rosenberg will be added to the slate of officers/trustees for 2016-17 that will be presented by

our nominating committee chairman, Eric Levine. And then voting also takes place at this meeting.

 A few weeks ago the Rabbi reached out to me concerning Dr. Ed Gates, one of the Temple founders. Apparently Ed is

once again living in NJ (up from Florida) but is pretty much home-bound. It would be a wonderful mitzvah if a few

guys would stop by and visit with Ed. We can arrange this with the help of Ed's son, Marshall. We can discuss this further at

the next board meeting.

And now for some G&W:

Besides my daughters, I also know of some others graduating college this week(s):

Aaron Peters, Syracuse University this Sunday

Dan Russo, Univ of Maryland, next Wednesday I believe

Mazel tov to both and their families. And if you know of someone else graduating high school, college, beauty school,

making parole, anything... please respond to all and let us all know.

Enjoy the breakfast,

best regards to all,

Ken
