Someone anonymous.

I remember you in Mechina & then Kingsley way & then moved on.
I didn’t know your older brother Shimon that well as he was older then me. But the way you described Shimon it brings me back memories, & you I don’t think you ever missed a Seder. I believe it comes from your older brother Shimon. Only Simchas & Moshiach now.

I didn’t know shimon, but we are one family, one community – even though he lived in England. I donated, you should too! And may this be the last campaign ever needed!

I remember your brother and thinking at the time that he might be a beineni

This is a terrible matzav for the family. We need Moshiach now so that his family can be reunited with him even before Shabbos!
