[HANASHIR:10208] Re: Nephew's Bar Mitzvah

[Ilana and Mark Axel <axelsinchicago...>]

I sang Debbie's "B'ruchot Haba'ot" to open at my own
son's Bar Mitzvah, and it was very beautiful. Our
intent was also to welcome the service, and all who
came to be with us "tachat kanfei hash'china."
Good luck, Ilana Axel
