Beautiful, every-word-is-spot-on article by @ChaskelBennett about our dear rebbi, the holy Rabbi Dovid Trenk z’t’l https://t.co/kgwoZyPRl5

So wonderful hanging out with my dear friend and colleague Shuly Halpert. We were both on the varsity basketball team of CTV (Camp Torah Vodaas) in 1977 & 78. He’s an incredible person and I’m so proud to have him as a friend.

With hearts brimming with gratitude to Hashem, we wish Mazel Tov to our children Sara and Tzvi Berkovitch on the birth of a baby girl! 
Mazel Tov to our mother/in-law Brocha Berger, and to our mechutanim Yankel and Zita. 
May we all share simcha together.
Yakov and Udi.

Very important topic — I’m giving a talk on “tell me anything” this Sunday Night in the Young Israel of Teaneck.
Rabbi Krohn said that it is open to the public so … come on over!!!
Pls email me at [email protected] to set up a talk in your community….

[Yakov Horowitz @yakovhorowitz]

…in person or via Zoom — on this subject or other parenting and personal growth topics.
Have a look at the short video in the next post for more information about this critical subject and why it’s super important to parenting kids nowadays.

Parents; please keep an eye on your kids’ media consumption and their overall wellness during the Hostage Return period.

[Yakov Horowitz @yakovhorowitz]

Please have a safety supervision plan for your kids over Succos and give them a refresher talk … even if it’s only family. Sadly a significant percentage of abuse is committed by family members.

[Yakov Horowitz @yakovhorowitz]

The aggrieved person is the only one who has agency over forgiveness. One should never, ever pressure abuse survivors to forgive their abuser.

Sent this to our family chat. 

Can’t make this up — my amazing wife Udi was a blur this morning, cooking and baking for the upcoming Yomim Tovim (holidays). 

I put down an Amazon Return box on the counter and she started writing “brownies” on it.

That look in his eyes …….
In memory of all those who died on 911 — especially the heroic firefighters and first responders who ran in when everyone was running out.
May God bless their memories and comfort their loved ones.

Foolproof way to, like, develop a meaningful relationship with your daughter (in my case, grandaughter(s). Notice that I did that with the Starbucks label facing away, so I committed this vital info to memory.

Our 45th anniversary… It’s a bit surreal for both of us …

Udi; thanks for sharing your life with me, for being the most extraordinary wife, mother and grandmother; for being my closest friend and soulmate.
