Beth Israel Congregation 59th Annual Journal Dinner
11 Shevat 5774 January 12th, 2014
As I begin my term as President of Beth Israel, I see great things in the future of our synagogue. Among my goals as president is to unify the orthodox community in a facility which accommodates the needs of all ages under one roof. It is a goal which will require the efforts of all members, working together. The ‘Meet the Pres-ident” forum, programming committee meeting, and others are only the start. There is ample opportunity for each member to have a part in our plan of action.
Very soon we will be embarking on a capital improvement project that will result in the beautification of our main sanctuary, social hall, kitchen and restrooms. There is much work to be done and all of tonight’s honorees play a major role in the future of Beth Israel.
Past president Dr. Lanny Grobman has always been the steady rock & foundation of Beth Israel. His keen understanding of community dynamics and strength of leadership has forever left its mark on the future growth of our beloved institution.
Lisi Wolfson is new to the Beth Israel Board of Directors. She and her husband Daniel, are the paramount examples of Ba’alei Chesed. Say little and do much is their motto. Lisi and Daniel are well deserving of the Young Leadership Award.
My dear friends Ronnie and Sara are an integral part of Beth Israel. From Ronnie’s inspirational davening to Sara’s involvement in many community activities, they are truly deserving of Beth Israel’s Keter Shem Tov Award. When the shul needs assistance with anything and everything, we can always rely on Ronnie and Sara to volunteer in any way possible. Their dedication and support is truly inspirational. The Gemara says: “One man’s candle is light for many.” (Masechta Shabbos). The brilliant light shining from our honorees together continually light up the lives of all those who know them and they are shining examples of the path for all to follow. Mazel Tov to all of the honorees. May The Almighty continue to bestow His blessings upon you, your loved ones and Klal Yisroel.
Michael Lefkowitz President Beth Israel Congregation
Sara and Ronnie Gottlieb Keter Shem Tov Award
After moving to Miami Beach from Cincinnati in 2000, Sara and Ronnie immediately became
deeply involved and ingrained in the Miami Beach community. Thanks to Ronnie’s commitment
and dedication our Jewish community, it is no wonder he served on the boards of both the
former Young Israel of Miami Beach and Beth Israel Congregation. Additionally, he is involved
in many community organizations, including the Jewish Federation and Jewish Community
Services. His Yomim Noraim davening has been and continues to be an inspiration for our
congregation. In addition to an active professional career that spans law, nursing home
administration and real estate management, Ronnie always makes time for his passion for
running. Having run his first marathon at the age of 50, Ronnie has completed 23 marathons
and is still going strong! He is an avid sports fan and loves to travel with Sara.
Sara’s spirited charisma has made her the perfect member of the Beth Israel Congregation’s
Sisterhood. She has been instrumental in creating learning opportunities for women, including
a monthly Rosh Chodesh shiur in memory of her parents. She is also involved in many other
Shul activities, such as co-chairing both the Chanukah and Shul dinners and the Purim
Mishloach Manot campaign. Sara is involved in countless broader Miami Beach community
volunteer and chesed organizations. She is a former Miami Beach JCC board member and is
currently serving on the adult programming committee of MBJCC. Her involvement with the
Miami Jewish Federation, Amit, Emunah and Jewish Community Services only scratch the
surface of her dedication to the Jewish community. Sara loves to spend her time exercising and
dancing, acting in community theatre groups and traveling the world.
Both Ronnie and Sara are philanthropic and generous in support of their community and are
never ones to seek recognition or honor. They enjoy spending time traveling the world,
especially in Israel and NY where their three children, Dovid and Ilana, Rebecca and Seth and
Nechama and Etan, and eleven grandchildren live. No matter where they are and what they do,
they have earned a shem tov, a good name, and are well liked by all who meet them.
January 12, 2014 11 Shevat 5774
Sara & Ronnie,
The Mishna in Avot says that Aharon loved all human beings and drew them near to Torah. The sainted
Chazon Ish commented that these are not two separate qualities. Rather, they are interwoven and
interdependent on one another. Who is uniquely qualified to draw one closer to the Torah? One who
has Ahavas Yisrael (love of their fellow Jews). Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kook z”l writes in his work Orot
Hakodesh, The more the quest for God grows in a person’s heart, the more does the love of all people
grow in him. Drawing from Rav Kook’s perspective, your apparent love for Hashem is evidenced by the
many friends that love and surround you. The two of you are always “on”. Whether it is flying around
the world, taking care of your children and grandchildren, or the care that you give to our Shul and
community; your dedication and commitment to helping others is one of the most endearing qualities to
anyone who knows you.
Your love and warmth for me and my family is so special to us. I often find my sons humming your
niggunim and as you know; my daughter has her own stories about the two of you! There is no more
that I can say other than ‘Thank you’ and tell you how much I appreciate the friendship I have with both
of you. May you only have true Torah blessings from your children and grand children. Mazal Tov, Rabbi Donald Bixon
Dr. Lanny Grobman
Presidential Service Award
Lanny has been committed to serving our community for over thirty years, both as a past
President of Beth Israel and of the Hebrew Academy. He served as the Beth Israel President
during a time of difficult transition and navigated the complexities with skill and
grace. Throughout the years, he has personally sponsored many scholars in residence, in
addition to many other activities to support the Shul.
Lanny has a busy Otolaryngology practice and is involved with medical training programs
at University of Miami and Florida International University. He and Gale live in Miami Beach and
are proud parents to Cynthia and Ariel Grobman, Lily Grobman, Gabrielle Benmergui and Ariana
Benmergui. Gabrielle and Ariana are finishing college. Lily and Ariel are following in
Lanny’s medical footsteps; Lily in PA school and Ariel in residency at UM. Lanny enjoys boating,
reading, spinning and is a frequent fan at Miami Heat games.
He is a distinguished member of our community and his service has left a significant and
lasting impact on the Beth Israel Congregation.
January 12, 2014 11 Shevat 5774
Lanny,
For a community to be successful it needs strong and effective leadership, and you have been a true
leader to our Miami Beach community. Your focus, determination and integrity have been essential
components in directing our Beth Israel congregation through pivotal times in our community’s history.
The Gemara in BaBa Batra says “Woe to the world who has lost his leader and woe to the ship who has
lost its captain.” Why the double expression of loss? Our sages are alluding to two periods; when the
world is tranquil it requires an ordinary leader, however when it is in turmoil like a ship floundering in
the sea, it requires a wise captain to come to its rescue. You have been our leader and our captain and
this community cannot thank you enough for all that you have done on our behalf. I admire your
leadership skills and your empathy to the needs of others.
On a personal note, I enjoy sharing with you life’s vices and Torah classes. I appreciate your perspective
and I look forward to your participation. May Hashem bless you and your family with good health and
happiness and may we together continue to see our Miami Beach and Beth Israel community flourish. Mazal Tov, Rabbi Donald Bixon
Lisi and Dr. Daniel Wolfson Young Leadership Award
Ever since Lisi and Daniel chose to build their home and lives here in Miami Beach, they have
made a tremendous mark as emerging young leaders in the community.
Often known as Morah Lisi, Lisi has taught and nurtured many of the children in our community
as a kindergarten teacher at the Hebrew Academy of Miami Beach. Between our Shul and
school, there is not a committee that Lisi has not chaired or participated in. Lisi chairs the
youth committee at Beth Israel and was the driving force of the PTA at Hebrew Academy. She is
also very involved in community organizations, such as Sharsheret – an organization supporting
women with breast cancer.
In addition to his professional career in Gastroenterology, Daniel wears many other hats
depending on what is needed from him. With his warm heart and generous spirit, Daniel is
known as our resident “go-to-guy” as he is always willing and ready to lend medical assistance,
handyman skills, airport transportation, personal moving manpower and IT expertise. Daniel
has become indispensable when it comes to youth and synagogue programming and has
facilitated many new programs and initiatives for the Beth Israel community.
There isn't anything that Lisi and Daniel wouldn't do for their community, Shul and school. They
are raising four daughters, Ariella, Kayla, Yakira and Eliana, with the leadership
values, commitment and generosity they embody. They are a powerhouse couple in our
community and couldn’t be better recipients for the Young Leadership Award.
January 12, 2014 11 Shevat 5774
Lisi & Daniel,
The Torah tells us in the book of Devarim, “And you should teach (them) Torah diligently to your
children.” The Sifre teaches that the term “children” really means students. I would like to suggest that
what the Sifre is saying is that all of our children are our students and all of our students are our
children. We must always teach our children with true Torah values and we must teach our students
with the empathy and sincerity as if they were our very own children. Your attitudes toward your
respective professions reflect this very notion. You treat your patients and students like they are your
very own family. There is not a Shabbos afternoon that your home is not full of children of all ages that
are drawn to the warmth and caring that fill your home. You put every effort into making sure that your
Synagogue, the youth program and your Rabbi are left wanting nothing. Simchas Torah for the kids,
Purim carnivals, Sukkah decorating, Shabbat groups - day or night you can be found thinking about and
working for our Shul. With your wisdom, love and generosity, both of you have become true leaders
amongst our peers.
I consider it a true privilege to have gotten to know Bubba and Bobbi, your respective parents, and to
maintain a close relationship with Ariella, Kayla, Yakira, and Eliana. The relationship I cherish the most is
with the two of you. I cannot imagine life without you, and I don’t remember what life was like before
you. You could have chosen any community to live, and it is our good fortune that you decided to
establish your roots here. May our families continue to celebrate many may more semachot together. Mazal Tov, Rabbi Donald Bixon
