Not sure what to say?

I grew up a block from OCJCC and got to know Rabbi early on. I was bar mitzvah there, as were my brothers Larry and Michael. My entering Hebrew school and attending services created the magnet that drew my parents into the synagogue. My mother, Phyllis, worked as a secretary for the rabbi and later ended up as president of the Sisterhood. And my father, Elkin, ultimately became president of the Mens Club. Our entire family got to know the Rabbi and Blanche as well as his sons. Rabbi was...

I was recently thinking about Rabbi! I met with him in 1996 when I was looking to become a Jew by choice! He was so thoughtful, patient & understanding throughout the process! And a year later he married us! My husband & I just celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary this past May 25th! Rabbi was such a caring person! He holds a very special place in our hearts! We´re so very sorry for your loss! Maybe his memory be a blessing to his family!

I miss Rabbi Romirowsky especially when he was a guest rabbi at Congregation Sinai. When called up to the Bima, he would give you a tootie roll after reading a passage.

Rabbi Romirowsky was (and eternally IS) the glue that helps build and maintain a community and a people. I shake my head in sorrow and sympathy for his physical loss. His soul and good deeds will live forever.

Can't believe it's almost a year anniversary of Rabbi's death. There isn't a day that goes by that we don't think of him and miss him as a man, a Rabbi and a dear friend.

I just realized it has been almost one year since Rabbi's passing. I know I miss his smile, and soft way he spoke. He truly was my idea of a man who deserved the utmost respect as a Rabbi and a Man of Honor!

Thank you so much for the kind advice and help you gave us. We appreciated our phone conversations and wish we could have had more time with you. Joe & Lynn Goldovitz

Sorry to hear of Rabbi Romirowsky's passing. He was delight of my childhood at OCJCC.
