Affirming what

MAGGIE

expressed for us in January 2010: while the day
may be short and the workload large, never have

we seen

RABBI AND MRS. BIER

fail to strive for and accomplish what they set out
to do, each firmly guided by the belief that this is

the work that Hashem intends for them.

With Hakaras Hatov for three decades
of guidance and friendship,

Thank you

RABBI BIER

for the time you spend with us each week,
deepening our appreciation of the pasuk

from Ashrei:
‫פותח את ידך ומשביע לכל חי רצון‬

"You open your hand and satisfy the desire of every
living thing"

Our learning with you forms the
foundation of the day.

With deepest respect and appreciation,
