Memories, 2011
From Family and Friends:
"Dearest Marg and Jerry,
I know this time of the year is so tremendously difficult. Please know that I'm thinking of you constantly.
I love you,
Sally"
“To our very dear and special friends -
Our thoughts will be with you as always… .
Much love,
Judy & Geoffrey”
“…will be there as always in spirit; will remember Tani here at the same time. Could Michah's shiur either be taped or written so that we can learn from it?
Love
Bunim and Pricha,”
Drs. Barry and Paula Eizenstein
“Thanks for this. We'll be thinking of you all and of Tani.
Love,
Meg” Meg Shreve, Tani’s cousin
“I will pray for you.
Love,
Stephen A Ramseur” Tani’s cousin
MAG & JERR!
The anniversary of Tani's arrival in Heaven is coming up soon, so he keeps nudging me to drop you a line or two to share the love he has for us all & wants us to grow in with each other. Just sitting here with my fingers bouncing off the keyboard brings back all the images of home, family, & friends that became so much a part of my life six months ago! In little ways rather than big, I sense the lasting values of the experience that shape my own faith & relationship to God in the reality of here & there, now as well as then. Granted, it's a pretty haphazard sensation, but one that's of the spirit world, where Tani has been a home for some time. I realize there's a depth to it I'll not plumb completely till I join him; but it remains an invitation to continue along the paths discovered, & quite fascinating to explore. Haven't gotten far into Rambam yet, but each page brings a greater admiration for him & a desire to bring his wisdom, not just more fully into my own mind, but to bear on the present historical moment of a new Israel & its place in God's Providence…
I do hope his (Micah’s) newly published book is selling well, & that soon he'll see it published in English & other languages as well. Don't know how long it's going to be till I do join Tani, but what fun it's going to be to participate in Micah's successes more closely from a divine perspective…!
Much love, JACK”
Father Jack Vessels, Tani’s Great Uncle
“Maggie and Jerry,
Tani is always in our thoughts… Love to all in your very special family from all of us.
Jim” Dr. James Cohen, Tani’s cousin
“Dearest Goodmans.
We are thinking of all of you on this day.

Aunt Kathy”
“Dearest Maggie and Jerry
Our thoughts are with you tomorrow.
Lots of love,
Mark & Amanda Gilbert”
I'm so sorry but I won't be able to make it today since I have an exam.
As always, I will be thinking of you and will be there in spirit.
Sending you strength and a lot of love.

“Dear Maggie and Jerry,
I just wanted to send your whole family a warm hug from New York. I'll be thinking of you all on Sunday, wishing I could be there in person…
Have a Shabbat Shalom - lots of love
