I loved learning with her at the Academy for Jewish Religion. She taught me much about prayer, liturgy, inclusiveness and being a mensch. May her memory always be for a blessing.

I loved working with Rivka in the creation of the "modern inclusive" book of prayers and explanations, Shaarei Simcha. She was endlessly patient, open, enthusiastic, and intellectually rigorous. I have hoped ever since then that I would have another opportunity to work with her. Her memory is a blessing to all who knew her.

In 2000 I co-chaired the Friday-Sunday portion of the CAJE Conference at Hofstra University in NY. Rivka Haut was one of our Shabbat Scholars in Residence. I had an opportunity to speak with her several times and was impressed by her strength of conviction. The Jewish community has lost a courageous leader.

Rivka was a giant in Israel, a fearless, courageous, visionary leader, who did right in the name of Torah and let nothing and no one stop her in the pursuit of justice. She fought for those victimized by a corrupt rabbinic system, and for Jewish women's full religious rights at the Western Wall, both and all in the name of Torah, whose study was her great joy. She was a loving, brilliant, humor filled friend, whose loss is immense. May her vision and courage continue to guide us, may we prove...
