I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com

May his memory be a blessing. BDE.
May his neshama have an aliyah.
Carl, my parents both passed away decades ago. But not a day goes by that I don't think about them. Life is Lessons and one I've eventually learned is that fine parents, people of good character and kind heart, are truly a gift from God. Doing one's best to emulate them, to live one's own life as a person of good character and kind heart, is the gift back to them and to God. Easier said than done so often in this very imperfect world!
