Thank you to all who have
helped make this past year
so much better than
it might have been.
With gratitude,
Rabbi Steven and Judy Kane
For 35 years, CSI has been there for us - for the births of our children, for their B’nei Mitzvah, for the births of their children, and even providing a wonderful nursery school program for our grandson. It has been our support during loss as well. We are grateful for the inspiring programs, and for the Rabbi’s amazing trips to Israel where we have made lifelong friendships. We are grateful for the Jewish education provided by Rabbi Kane and CSI, including Francine’s own adult Bat Mitzvah. We are grateful for our CSI Community! Francine and Robert Goldstein

& FamilyWe are grateful for all our parents did to prepare us for life. We are grateful for the life we are making together. We are grateful for our children, our family, and our friends. We are grateful for all the volunteers and their organizations that make the world better. We are grateful for all the people who made it possible for us and ours to survive the Covid pandemic. We are grateful to be living in the United States. We are grateful to live in a time when the State of Israel exists. We are grateful for our CSI community and programs and the people who make it all happen. Baruch HaShem Rochelle and Marc Auslander

KarouselK@aol.comWe are grateful to CSI’s clergy, staff and congregants for helping us to successfully navigate through these extraordinarily difficult times. Best wishes to all of us for smoother sailing ahead! Margie and Mike Kirsch and family
This has been a challenging year for all of us. We are
grateful to so many people: To those who did
research to learn how to treat Covid-19, who
developed the vaccines to prevent it, and who worked
so hard to care for people infected by Covid-19. Also
to those who labored to provide essential services for
everyone, and to those who tried to help all of us with
steady, science-based leadership, compassion, and
wisdom.
We are grateful for our wonderful family, including
our three children, their spouses, and our
grandchildren (including one born within the past
few weeks). Our dear father/father-in law, Stanley
Marlin z"l, passed away during this year at age 96; we
are grateful for his life, his teachings, and his love.
We are grateful to those who have been our friends
over a span of many years. And we are grateful to the
members of the CSI community who have made us
feel welcome here following our move to Ossining.
And finally, we are grateful to Kakadosh Baruch Hu,
who has kept us alive (through some very frightening
health scares), sustained us, and enabled us to reach
this season.
May we all be blessed with good health, happiness,
and peace in the years to come.
Shalom,
Alan and Liz LegattWe are grateful for our family,
friends and community.
May each of us go from
strength to strength.
Daniel & Marian Levine
Amy, Maya & LeaThis was a year of reflection, of loss,
of silver linings, of community resilience…
We are thankful for our community and everyone who helped
to lift our spirits, to foster our ability to pray and stay together
and to maintain our sense of belonging…
For all the moments we had to stop to smell the roses,
appreciate the nature that surrounds us…
For our chickens and their eggs, and for Spidey and
Harry the Hawk who keep an eye on the farm!
We so appreciate the whole CSI team!
It takes a village - we are a village!
