Shul family and friends, and journal honoree Roberta Garris and her family ushered in the month of September with a Zoom launch party for Journal 2022. Folks popped in to join the fun, many offering mazel tov and best wishes to Roberta, and all of us raising our glasses to toast our honoree. We then viewed the pages of the journal with its many messages of tribute, and we oohed and aahed over the elegant design and layout created by Andrea Blaga. Capturing everyone on a screen shot, ideally smiling and without an elbow in an ear, proved challenging, but you get the idea. Great honoree. Great fun. Thank you to Judith Weiner for spearheading the project and to all who contributed time, talent and funding for our shul.
