Gorgeous weather, deliciious food catered by Deborah Pittorino, and an upbeat crowd of about 70 shul members and well-wishers contributed to a splendid afternoon to launch the 2024 Journal and to celebrate our honoree, Judith K. Weiner, whose family and dear friends added to the festive atmosphere. Cheers and applause accompanied the announcement that Adrianne Greenberg had won the raffle prize of an afternoon aboard a luxury Chris  Craft with six friends, including drinks and refreshments. On behalf of her siblings, Loni Efron spoke lovingly about their mother, followed by Patricia Berman, whose friendship with Judith spans more than 40 years. Ron Rothman provided the music. Madelyn Rothman chaired the Journal Committee. Debbie Henry and Nancy Torchio arranged the party. And what The Shofar heard over and again all afternoon was that the event, held on Sunday, July 21, was clearly the most beautiful and enjoyable event ever held in Andrew Levin Park…and that we should plan another one…                                                                                                                                    Photos by Adrianne Greenberg and Sara Bloom
