Dear Editor, I would like to thank Mrs. R. Molinsky for her kind words regarding Frankel’s Kosher and myself in particular. A manager is only as good as the staff behind him. Five years ago, Mr. Frankel had a vision of a kosher supermarket that would provide for the needs of the community with a dedicated staff and competitive prices. With new innovations by our store manager Nochum Kaplan, we at Frankels strive to make shopping here a pleasant experience. Looking forward to meeting and greeting each valued customer, Jeff Green Dear Editor, I was in awe reading Cheri’s Tannenbaums’ article in your paper this week. The woman exudes such positivity and strength in the face of adversity. Just when I thought that she had suffered enough, I read on and saw more hardship. But Cheri never posed her challenges as hardships – which is more admirable! She is the epitome of sameach b’chelko and moving forward despite all the setbacks that she encountered.

He stuck by Cheri and cared for her all these years and kept her dreams alive, moving forward and building a family and future with her.

It seems like everything he did was about ahavas Yisroel and making another person feel good. Each of us can do that on our own level – whether it is giving tzedakah, joining a meal train, reaching out to a lonely friend. We could all be “little” Reb Shayaleh men and women. While the rest of the world kills each other, in our community we can love each other and give to each other. This is the beauty of being part of our world. May Reb Shayaleh continue to be a meilitz yosher for all of Klal Yisroel. Yitzchok H. Dear Editor, I’m surprised that you did not have an article on the legalization of marijuana in New York. Yes, it has been made legal by Albany. It seems like King Cuomo and his goons are pulling out all of the stops so that he Continued on page 10
