Honorary Letter
Letter from Jerrold Nadler, Member of Congress
 
Dear Friends: I write to extend warm greetings to all those
in attendance at the Town & Village Synagogue 75th
Anniversary Gala. Founded in 1949, Town & Village
Synagogue is a welcoming Conservative synagogue that
provides a sacred space and spiritual home for participants
and members from across New York. In addition to providing
opportunities for congregants to partake in daily religious
services and practice, inclusive ASL-interpreted services, and
learning opportunities for all ages, Town & Village
Synagogue nurtures a community that values a rich
Jewish heritage with a modern inclusive practice.

milestone of 75 years. Congratulations to Sam Kuckley &
Roberta Alpert, David Pasteelnick, and Terri Gumula &
Robert Drach. All the honorees have displayed a dedication
to Jewish life, education, culture, and community that is
worthy of this special recognition.

Special thanks to David Pasteelnick for continuing to lend his beautiful voice to our choir on top of his many other musical endeavors.

Rabbi Sebert, for his deep commitment to building and maintaining our community, for his inspiring community organizing work, and for always warmly welcoming our family whenever they come to T&V.
Cantor Postman, not just for her dedicated choral leadership, but for always being available to help me with the tricky parts of my Torah and haftarah readings and with the melodies to various prayers even when I'm going to be leading those prayers somewhere else.

The Schacht family sends best wishes
to Town & Village Synagogue on the
occasion of its 75th anniversary.
Henrietta and Ben joined the
synagogue when they moved to
Stuyvesant Town after WWII. The
T & V community was a focal point
of their lives, creating deep friendships
that sustained them in
their later years.
We have joyous memories of
attending Shabbat services and
meeting their friends.
Henrietta and Ben imbued us with a
strong sense of Jewish identity. We
are proud to see them commemorated on stained glass windows in the sanctuary and the
yahrzeit plaque dedicated to their parents where their son Mervyn, our father,
is also remembered.
All of our love to all of you,
Susan, Jennie, Paul & Walter Schacht, grandchildren
Benjamin, Samuel, Nathaniel & Sophie Schacht, great grandchildren
