From a member:
"There is no way I can accurately express the feelings I have regarding the two days of Rosh Hashana servicesat Ezra Habonim. Your sermons, the Hazzan, and the
choir were over the top. The best like from the
heavens. You said today that you had never seen anything like
it in 30 years as a Rabbi. What I felt matches your sentiments exactly. May the coming New Year be filled with many
fine rewards for your gifted talents and commitment. You make a special difference in this world...and you
have in my life for the past two days. WOW!"
