December 2023

 As I reflect back on the past year I am so very grateful for all the things that came into my life. Family and Friends. I may live a distance from them however I appreciate the modern technology that brings us together. 

Our Annual Family Traditional ZOOM brought us together, all across North America, British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and North Carolina. 

We were invited to spend Christmas Day with Pat and Kate Fitzgerald and Kate's Mother, Edie Dibley. It has been a long time since Randal and I sat at such a beautiful decorated home and dinning room table. 

 

Honour of Past and Present Presidents

On November 5, 2022 the Regina Jewish Community proudly Presented  The Fall Gala in Honour of Past and Present Presidents of the Beth Jacob Synagogue. 

Jerold Birstein was president from 1992 to 1995 and 1984 to 1986.

Quote from his story 1989 

"I became active with Beth Jacob Synagogue and community by being voted to the Board of Directors, serving on various committees, i.e. House Chairman, Vice President, and President. I was also active in B'nai Brith, chairing the Car Draw Dinners and with the Wheat City Curling Club as treasurer for many years.  Throughout the years I have been active in fund raising, not only with B'nai Brith and the Beth Jacob Community but with UIA, Israeli Bonds and Hadassah-WIZO Bazaars. I was made a Life Associate Member of Hadassah-WIZO when Lorraine and I made out trip to Israel in November 1987."
