Mishloach Manot poems are Simone's forte.

She guides us to lands afar to eat foods gourmet.

In the realm of rhyming she has great expertise.

Her Purim poems are gems, they always do please.

Mark is a doer, a competent former president.

He's dedicated to our shul, it's quite evident.

They're a lovely couple with a fine brood of four.

Kol hakavod to

Simone and Mark,

who each and together exemplify what it is to be a leader. Over many years, you've stepped in wherever there was a need, without being asked and without seeking recognition. Simone, you energized every project you took on and every committee that you chaired. In your Women's League leadership and in all that you've done since, you've balanced kindness, creativity and fun. You give real thought and consideration to everything that you do. Mark, you devoted yourself to YINR from the start and you raised the bar for us in every way. Each communication that goes out, from announcements to important documents, has your imprint - organized, concise, effective. You give of your time freely, not stopping until the job is done, and done well. You have been wholly dedicated to the success of the Shul; we have shared that dedication, and it has been a privilege to work with you and learn from you for the last 10+ years. May the Abishter give you His Bracha for a lifetime of Hatzlacha and Nachas from the Kinder.

Michelle and Rafi,

from the moment you arrived, you jumped in and made yourselves available for anything the shul needed. You've shown our young members, by example, what it means to be part of a community. We look forward to many more years of your leadership of YINR. May you continue to go from strength to strength.
