[HANASHIR:17046] Belated thanks

[Joel Simon <joelsimon...>]

So, I apologize for not thanking all of you earlier, but thank you for your
help in preparing for what turned out to be an amazing weekend.  On February
27, just over one week after some really nasty graffiti was found at the
Temple in Paducah, KY, over 300 people turned out to help clean up the
graffiti (which is about 1% of Paducah), 200 stayed for an interfaith
remarks session, and the most amazing part, was over 100 people (probably 80
of them not Jewish) stayed for the Shabbat service.  When our goal was to
attain a level of understanding to keep something like this from happening
again, we couldn't have asked for more.

Hope you all are doing well,

Joel
