by Shomrei Emunah

In a brief, but no less heartfelt gathering Rabbi David Greenstein, Marge Wise, Nick Levitin, Fern Heinig and Marc Chalom bid Jorge Moreno, Shomrei’s loyal and devoted custodian for the past 22 years, a fond farewell. A beautiful card expressing Shomrei’s appreciation written by Jerilyn Margulies was read and translated by Mark Chalom, and a gift (that was the result of generous contributions from our members) was presented to Jorge as a retirement gift from our community.

The group shared fond memories of Jorge’s years at Shomrei and then gave him a collective hug as they bid him farewell, with the congregation’s best wishes for a very happy and well earned retirement with his wife and family in Columbia.

When back in the States, Jorge promised to come by for a visit.
