Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! When I was asked by the incomparable Michael Laufer to suggest a theme for this year’s dinner, out of nowhere the words "shir ushvach, halel zimra" came out of my mouth. I didn’t even have to think about it. This year has been a year where the community has faced challenges that would have been thought insurmountable, and baruch hashem, we have stood together, we have survived and we have prospered. Tonight’s dinner is really a seudat hodayah – a meal of Thanksgiving, to the Almighty, for blessing our Shul. Beyond that – we literally sing the praises of five incredibly devoted individuals to our community, each of whom richly deserves our praise and abundant thanks for being there for our community and for klal yisrael. Dr. Jamie Nussbaum – whose physical therapy office is transformed into a Bet Medrash once a week to host a very special gemara shiur, whose work for Hatzalah, for the children of our community and as a leader of so many vital parts of our shul is so deeply appreciated. Marilyn Osgood – whose job title is financial administrator but who in reality is an unbelievable combination of social worker, therapist, crisis manager, and the glue that holds the shul together. Her knowledge and love of the community is legendary. I have relied on her advice on more occasions than I can remember, and I hope to continue doing so well beyond her retirement in October. We wish her and Armin a huge bracha of hatzlacha raba in the next chapter of their caring lives. Jim and Gale Kaufman have given of themselves to this community over and over again, and never need to be asked twice. They have been leaders and activists in almost every imaginable area of our shul, including the presidency. All who know them admire and love them for their passion for knowledge – music, the arts, literature, politics – and most of all Judaism. In this past year, Jim and Gale have devoted countless hours to helping the shul, and have done so graciously and selflessly. And last, but on no account least – our beloved Chaz, treasured colleague, mentor, inspiration – and most of all, I am proud to say – friend. On reaching this special milestone, and for continuing to lead us, unfailingly and perfectly, b'halel u'zimrah, shir u'v'shacha –words are simply inadequate to thank you properly. Mazal Tov. May you and Batya enjoy all of Hashem’s blessings in good health for many, many years to come. Everyone who has worked so hard for tonight’s dinner – Perry and Margy-Ruth Davis, Michael and Miriam Laufer. Michael Doppelt, Rose Landowne, Aviva Sussman, Bernard Kabak, Elana Nussbaum, Noreen Wachs, Joe Blank and Carol Gross, together with all of the hard working office staff and volunteers – thank you for making tonight so special. With my warmest regards and abundant hakarat hatov, Shaul Robinson


Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner

Warmest Best Wishes and Congratulations to Lincoln Square Synagogue on this special night. To - Gale and James Kaufman, who served at the helm of the Synagogue. To – Dr. James Nussbaum who represents continuity of the younger generation of leadership. To – Marilyn Osgood who has been the face, voice and ears of the Synagogue with such grace and good cheer for so many years. For the two of us, however, the most compelling reason that we would have loved to be with you this evening is to celebrate the seventieth birthday of our friend and ever inspiring cantor – Chazan, Sherwood Goffin. Sherwood and Batya are not only close personal friends for almost five decades, but they were also our partners in establishing and developing the tone, the spirit, the music and love that always radiates from LSS. Sherwood's easy going personality, his sincere humility despite his enormous talent and his profound humanity which reaches out to embrace both young and old, serve as a constant inspiration. His faithfulness to 'nusach' while simultaneously creating and introducing new melodies transforms every prayer experience into an expression of love for and faith in our Father in Heaven. May he continue to inspire us all for many years to come. Shlomo and Vicky Riskin Efrat, Israel


Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner

“You are known by the company you keep,” is more than just a casual conversational comment, but it is a maxim of truth in interpersonal relationships. I am blessed and privileged to share this very special honor with four individuals that I admire and respect. It has made my inclusion in this august company a precious and joyous honor, and I am proud to be included in their ranks for this year’s dinner. Gale and Jim are personalities that run quiet and deep. They are never loud or aggressively “in your face.” Their connection to LSS is very strong, and they are committed to the welfare of the entire LSS family. I got to know Jim well during his term as president. I saw him experience and endure various “traumatic” moments in his presidency that he overcame by virtue of his calm demeanor. We are all beneficiaries of his sincerity and Gale’s warmth, and we look forward to their positive input for many years to come. Jamie Nussbaum is the epitome of “Emor M’at V’asai Harbei.” He is so talented in so many ways: Excellent Baal tefilla; Dedicated Gabbai; Devoted Hatzolo EMT; Physical Therapist, Sine Qua Non, of the highest professional skills and standards; and most importantly, an excellent father and devoted husband. You rarely get so many positive qualities in one individual! He is the model of what every LSS member should aspire to! Marilyn has kept the purse strings of LSS in order for decades, and I count her among my closest friends for all these years that we have been part of the LSS staff. She worries about every penny that goes out and is scheduled to come in. How many times has she called me to discuss certain benefits that were changing; or checks that had to be made out to teachers; or tuition monies that were owed by parents to the shul. She has always been on top of these things, and has done her job with dignity, expertise and a great deal of love for LSS. She will be missed sorely, and Batya and I wish her and Armin much mazal and good health on their journey into the heady atmosphere of Retirement. What can I say about myself? I can only tell that which is found deep in the inner recesses of my heart – that which I feel in my kishkes. This is my home, and has been such for 46 years. I love this shul with a deep, abiding love that I can barely explain or express. I have seen mountains; I have seen valleys. I have seen triumph and I have seen failure. Most importantly, I have seen miraculous recovery from failure. I hope and pray that The Kadosh Baruch Hu will give me the strength and health for a few more years to be able to continue to daven, and to exult in our new building, even as I mourn the old. Batya and I never dreamed that we would raise our children and spend our lives in Manhattan. We now could not even imagine how we could have done it elsewhere. May we all go from strength to strength and continue to enjoy Hashem’s overflowing bounty for many years to come. With Love, Chazzan Sherwood Goffin


Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner Rabbi Yose said, “May my lot be among those who complete Hallel each day.” Is this so? Does not Master say, “One who recites Hallel daily is a blasphemer?" Rabbi Yose’s comments refer to Psukei D’zimra (the daily praise taken from Tehillim) -Babylonian Talmud, Shabbat 118b This passage highlights two distinct types of tribute- one which is recited daily (Psukei D’zimra) and one which is reserved for special occasions (Hallel). It is the difference between extolling God for the natural course of things and thanking God for events which supersede nature in order to resolve a crisis. Each must be appreciated separately if the praise is to be considered genuine. To take some poetic license with tonight’s theme, ‫וזמרה‬ ‫הלל‬ ‫ושבחה‬ ‫ – שיר‬tonight we focus on both the Hallel-worthy and the Psukei D’Zimra- worthy: that which is necessary for the daily running of the community and that which comes specifically at moments of challenge. There are few who better represent the Psukei D’Zimra than tonight’s awardees. Cantor Sherwood Goffin, along with his wonderful wife Batya, has served as a pillar of the spiritual life of the LSS family since its inception. His sweet melodies, matched only by the kindness of his and Batya’s demeanors, have been a stalwart that has literally built our synagogue. Whether with the Hebrew school children and parents, ascending to the heights of a Yom Kippur Musaf service or leading us in our weekly Shabbat worship, the Chaz truly is the purveyor of all verses of praise, psukei d’zimra, in our shul. Marilyn Osgood is perhaps the most dependable person many of us know. There is no issue too small to escape her attention. She dots her i’s and crosses her t’s. Thoughtful, wise, diligent and caring, she does more than even the gargantuan task of keeping track of shul finances. If ever someone is in need- physically or emotionally ailing- it is Marilyn who will mention that s/he could use a phone call or a visit. What Marilyn has done- and continues to do- for the people and the institution that are Lincoln Square Synagogue is absolutely priceless. Jamie is the member’s member. As a ba’al tefillah (as I tell him frequently, I could listen to his davening ALL DAY!), member of the ritual committee and former gabbai of the 9:45 Rabbi Herschel Cohen Memorial Minyan, Jamie’s consistent dedication is impressive. Always sitting with his gaggle of redheads, no doubt, Jamie is able to communicate the significance of tefillah and community to his children without saying a word. And when he does say a word, it is to discuss how to help the shul grow and progress. This year, for instance, he was instrumental in bridging the Amsterdam and 9:45 minyanim. (And of course, in the broader community, he is no stranger to answering the call for those in crisis. Always wearing his West Side Hatzolah cap, he is at the ready even at great personal sacrifice when the need arises.) As for Hallel: Tonight’s honorees, Gale and Jim Kaufman, have done their share of Psukei D’zimra for the shul, but they have been there to offer a hand in times of hardship as well. Gale, in her role on the chevra kadisha, literally stands in at the most difficult moments offering solace to the bereaved by performing chesed shel emet (true kindness) with no expectation of any recognition. And, as many know, there were moments this year when the natural order of things for our shul looked insurmountable. And with thanks to the Almighty, to human generosity, we persevered. But it was also not without the hard work of many who made phone calls, strategized, wrote letters, etc., etc., etc., to help us progress. Jim was one of those people- giving of his time, energy and creativity for a shul about which he cares so deeply. As a couple and as individuals, we appreciate all that they have done and continue to do, as well as the humble and unassuming way in which they go about their tasks. So, this evening, let us sing ‫וזמרה‬ ‫הלל‬- acknowledging the manifold ways in which tonight’s awardees and honorees have made their mark, and continue to do so, on our LSS family. May they, and we, continue to go from strength the strength. Warmest regards from parental leave, Elana Stein Hain, Community Scholar

Rabbi Brachya said: “More loved [by God] is Moshe than Noach. Noach is originally called the “Righteous Man” followed by the “Man of the fields.” Moshe on the other hand, is first called the “Egyptian man,” and later he is called the “Man of God”. This, explains the Meshech Chochma, reflects the two different ways which one can serve God. The first way is to serve him individually and the second is to serve the greater community, to nullify oneself to the greater good and to be totally dedicated to the Tzibbur. The great Rabbi Simcha of Dvinsk explains that in the service of God it is greater to serve the community than to serve God directly as an individual. I want to extend my warmest Mazal Tov and Hakarat Hatov (Thank you) wishes to this year honorees: James and Gale Kaufman Dr. James Nussbaum Cantor Sherwood Goffin Marilyn Osgood Our honorees have truly distinguished themselves all in wonderfully different ways in the service of our Shul, our community and to the entire Jewish people. I have learnt so much from each of you and I hope that you only continue to inspire future leaders of ‫ישראל‬ ‫!!כלל‬ Rabbi Elli Ausubel


Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner It is my honor to express my personal feelings of admiration and gratitude to this year’s deserving Honorees at Lincoln Square Synagogue’s Annual Dinner. Present at the time when the magic started, Cantor Goffin reminds us all of the special way in which this synagogue grew into a world renowned phenomenon, and touched so many lives with the positive, joyous songs and celebrations of Jewish life. “The Chaz” embodies the loyalty and commitment to this mission that inspires us all, and I feel so very fortunate to have the opportunity to celebrate his 70th birthday with him. In a different role, Marilyn Osgood has demonstrated a special loyalty to Lincoln Square Synagogue, and after 30 years of devoted service, has chosen to retire from her professional role in the office. It is clear to all who know her that Marilyn is a very caring person, who wishes to be helpful to everyone who walks through her door, or calls her on the phone. Marilyn has given this shul her every effort, and she will not be easily replaced. I know that I am not alone in wishing Marilyn much happiness and success with her future endeavors. Gale and Jim Kaufman have been volunteers of extraordinary quality throughout the years, and it may come as no surprise to you that they are being honored at this special occasion. I have personally witnessed the determination, wisdom and significant amount of time that Jim has given to the shul this past year. With Gale’s support, Jim’s work has yielded impressive dividends with helping the 180 Amsterdam Project get re-started, and I feel indebted to Jim and Gale for the success of this critical effort. Jamie Nussbaum, as some of you may know, is no stranger to me. Twentysomething years ago, Jamie and I attended the same high school, and it was clear to everyone back then that he was leadership material. To meet up with him again at Lincoln Square, and continue to be impressed at his energies, accomplishments and the way in which everyone holds him in such high regard, is truly heart-warming for me. With Jamie Nussbaum involved, I am certain that Lincoln Square Synagogue’s future is bright indeed. Mazal Tov to all our Honorees! May your example set the bar high for others – professionals and volunteers alike – who follow in your path. Sincerely, Eli Kornreich Executive Vice President


Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner

When I was first approached to put something in for the Journal, my first thoughts were Great! I’m already sitting here typing up THEIR ads. Now they want me to write my OWN letter, too?! followed by What to say? Well, here goes:

Gale & James Kaufman, Jamie Nussbaum Though I have never been privileged to work directly alongside you, simply reading about your accomplishments and praises from your fellow friends and family allows me a glimpse at how well‐ deserved these honors are.

Cantor Sherwood Goffin The Voice, Heart and Soul of Lincoln Square Synagogue (I WILL get that CD player and hold music working again!). Always with a smile on your face, even first thing on a Monday, I know that I can start my day off with a Good morning, Chaz! and have one come right back my way. Even when I inadvertently interrupt a Bar Mitzvah lesson to ask for the Musical Note, the smile remains the same. You lead our congregation, and teach scores of Chazzanim at the Belz School, ensuring the sounds of Tefillah will always continue. Happy 70th Birthday, and may the sweet, inspiring sounds of our Chaz continue Ad Meah V’Esrim Shana!

Marilyn Osgood I started working with Lincoln Square Synagogue part‐time, while still in College, in 2000. I left for a brief stint in the offices of the Carlebach Shul. Appropriately enough, in 2005, Lincoln Square Synagogue was bringing back The Journal to its Annual Dinner, and needed someone who knew the software, and could jump right into things. Marilyn thought of me, & gave me a heads up. I’ve been privileged to work with her every day since, and that is but one of the many memories I have over these past 11 years. As many will point out (sorry for the spoilers!), until now, if you were in a hurry and needed to know, the answer invariably has been, Ask Marilyn. On a more personal note, when I’ve needed someone to talk to, laugh with, or even complain about the workload or even weather, the answer has been the same. You haven’t just been a fixture of my week or a co‐ worker, you’ve been a good friend too. It won’t be the same here.

Our Volunteers Although they won’t be receiving any awards tonight, or mentioned by name – there are simply too many: Thank you to all of our hard working and always dedicated and loyal volunteers. Whether you were on the Dinner/Journal Committee or simply had only 10 minutes to help get out one of our many mailings for the Journal Dinner, you all made tonight possible.

Looks like I found something to say after all! Hope it wasn’t too much.

Phil Landsberg

Thank you to all our Honorees. Very well deserved. Guess who: Someone I spent until the wee hours going over her figures, and who calls me during the day more than my wife? And someone who organizes the batting order week in week out and without whom Shabbat afternoons would be such a drag. And someone else who fills our week with beautiful melodies. Happy Birthday. And finally a couple who organized a master class in Civil Engineering and without whom the new Shul building would never have gotten back on track. This is what makes Lincoln Square the special place to be. We appreciate you all.

Dearest Marilyn, You have dedicated 30 years to Lincoln Square Synagogue. You work selflessly and rigorously as you do on any project with which you are involved. In addition, you have not deducted one iota from your devotion to being a Wife, Mother and Bubbie. Thank you for being you! With love, Armin


Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner Full Page

Dear Mom, We are so proud of you. For 30 years we have watched your dedication and devotion to Lincoln Square Synagogue. You have such a strong work ethic, the likes of which is seldom seen these days. Not only have you worked hard, you have done it your way: with kindness, compassion, and a sense of justice. You have shown us the value of community and volunteerism by giving your time and your heart to bikur cholim, chevra kadisha, hachnasat orchim, and to fundraising for causes in which you believe. There is always enough to invite anyone who does not have a place to eat for shabbat lunch or a place to stay. We know that your midot will continue to shine as you move onto the next chapter. We love you with all our hearts, Davi, Marc and Ephraim

Lincoln Square Synagogue Annual Dinner Full Page AN OPEN LETTER TO PHYLLIS GETZLER Dear Phyllis, Freda and I have been out-of-neighborhood members of Lincoln Square Synagogue for some four decades and we have long been awed by your and Stanley's devotion to its welfare. We were thrilled but not surprised when you took the helm during the recent building crisis. For us you are "the fabulous Phyllis". We recall happy relationships with other LSS people. Star among them were Gale and James Kaufman who invited us when we came to the West Side for YomTov; they have done so much for the shul over the years. Many of our good LSS friends joined with us in our rescue efforts for Soviet and East European Jewry and made LSS a unique congregational base for the Movement. It all started with my getting to know the 20 year old Steven Riskin in Israel in 1960. I recall visiting the original LSS at 150 West End Ave. to discuss his becoming the founding Chairman of my newly created Student Struggle for Soviet Jewry (SSSJ). (A young woman, Rose (now Landowne), was there for a shiur.) Cantor Sherwood Goffin soon joined us and led us in songs of protest and hope for Soviet Jews. I recall on one occasion he traveled from a Jericho, Long Island event to participate in our great Jericho March of April 4, 1965. For us his combination of consummate Hazonus and heartfelt Baal Tefilah makes him very special. The teenage Effie Buchwald got into trouble with the administration of his Yeshiva for joining a matzo protest march organised by then Columbia student, the always-committed Bernard Kabak as early as 1962! Amos Alter was a lively activist in Flatbush where I established a Brooklyn office in the 1960s. Margy-Ruth Greenbaum (now Davis) joined me very early as a teenager. Eventually, she succeeded my Soviet Jewry disciple, Malcolm Hoenlein, to become the capable Director of the Greater New York Conference on Soviet Jewry with its mighty Solidarity Sundays. Glenn Richter early joined my core group of volunteers centered in Yeshiva University and eventually became our long-time valued National Coordinator. He married the leader of the Stern College "gang", the truly dedicated Lenore Wolfson. We have long cherished the productive enthusiasm of Bob and Elissa Burnat. Freda and I have had the special pleasure of working with two LSS members who have given unique service to the Jewish people. Cyrus Abbe worked on behalf of Romanian, Russian, Syrian and Ethiopian Jews and accompanied me a number of times to Washington to testify before Congressional committees. We will never forget our first encounter with Barbara Ribakove Gordon, on a Shabbos afternoon at an LSS summer retreat in the country. I appealed for volunteers to go to Romania. She jumped up and cried out “Send me!” It was the most ardent “Hineni” response I ever experienced. We feel privileged that her very successful Romania visit led her to create her truly wonderful NACOEJ, devoted to the rescue and Jewish renewal of Ethiopian Jews. Over the years, the office of LSS has been blessed with two remarkable women, the late Martha Cohn z”l and Marilyn Osgood. Despite their very different personalities, Marilyn proved a wonderful replacement for Mrs. Cohn and we will miss her sorely. The early years of LSS and SSSJ were played out against the backdrop of the first Star Trek years and we would like to adapt the famous Mr. Spock "bracha" to our dear Phyllis and the great LSS ship – “May you live long and prosper" under the outstanding and compassionate leadership of Rabbi Shaul Robinson.
