On Sunday, September 13, the Vallejo Hadassah chapter sponsored our first event of the year – a tea and a birthday celebration for Beryl Cohen. Approximately 30 people came to help us start off the new year. Our chapter gave Beryl a lifetime membership to Hadassah in honor of her birthday. Now that she is 90 she can become a life member at the discounted rate of $90.00.
We had great food and of course tea. It was nice to mingle with people and catch up with everyone after not having seen them during the summer. Our new board members introduced themselves and now we all know who to go to for everything. We have several events coming up which are listed on the right side of this blog.
The event would not have been as nice as it was without Nadine’s hard work and grace. She decorated the tables and brightened the room with the flowers. She gave a moving tribute to Beryl that was both beautiful and inspirational at the same time. I hope that she will consider reprinting it in our newsletter.
All in all, everyone had a good time. We look forward to seeing everyone at future events.
Happy New Year.
