You are truly the one who came into my house (after me lighting my candles on my own bh with simcha) when there was no-one around - I live on my own,, spun the dreidel around for me, served me hot latkes, and had me spinning in inspiration and connectivity to the yomtov.
You sure know how to spread a chanuka festive tablecloth with all the traditional goodies on my table and keep the music going and bright lights burning long after the flames of the candles have gone out...you spread light and happiness and Hashem has all the goodies +++++++ ready to serve you and your loved ones, piping hot and ever-ready.
You don't even know what you classes do for my thirsty soul.
A Freilichen Chanuka , good shabbos, good chodesh, good everything, good YY...

Deepest admiration and gratitude to Hashem for angels like Eddie who even though he went thru so much unbearable pain and sorrow, still wanted to help, give and do great deeds. May Eddie have light in Gan Eden 🙏👏

Hi everyone. I sent Rabbi Jacobson an email in response to the story behind the happiest man on earth. The Rabbi requested I should share it....my idea was just that not everyone can be a superhero like this man. I feel the best way to honor the memories of those who suffered immesurably during the war is to live our lives to the FULLEST and that we should VIBRANTLY embrace the world around us with the awareness that we can do what they couldn't. In this way we can do it for their sake.
