A heartfelt farewell
By Estelle Price, 2025 Lion of Judah Co-chair
As I step down from my role as Jewish Federation of Greater Naples Lion of Judah co-chair, I do so with immense gratitude, pride and reflection. It has been an incredible honor to serve in this position and to be part of a community of women who lead with strength, generosity and deep Jewish values. Throughout my three years as co-chair, I’ve been continually inspired by the passion and dedication of our Lion of Judah members. Each of you brings something unique and powerful to this sisterhood, and together, we have made a real and lasting impact — locally, nationally and in Israel.
I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to my fellow co-chair, Gail Smith, whose partnership has been both a joy and a true gift. Your friendship, warmth and unwavering support made this experience even more meaningful, and I’m so grateful to have walked this journey with you.
While I’m stepping back from this leadership role, my commitment to the mission of Jewish Federation of Greater Naples and Lion of Judah remains as strong as ever. I look forward to continuing to support this remarkable community and the women who will carry this important work forward.
Thank you all for the trust, encouragement and friendship you’ve shared with me. It has been a privilege to serve.
