L'hitraot Joey Videos & Photos
Author | |
Date Added |
Below are links to videos that Steve Birkel and Barbara Gundle made of last week's L'hitraot Joey celebrations. If you missed any of them, you can experience being there by watching a video or two. Or if you attended all of the celebrations, you can replay some of your favorite moments.
You can also watch this slide show about Rabbi Joey, whichTom Berg and Barbara Gundle presented on April 20. And you can see photos from last Thursday night in this April 20 photo album and from last Friday and Saturday in this April 21-22 photo album.
Fortunately, Rabbi Joey and Lisa Rackner are staying in Portland, so our paths will cross again. Apparently there is no word for "good bye" in Hebrew, except "shalom," which is used for both "hello" and "good bye" but really means "peace."
So this is just "L'hitraot" - "See you later, Joey!"
