As a member of stephen wise synagogue, we used to look forward to seeing Halley and David at high holiday services. As the mother of one of our dearest friends, we felt a strong bond. As well, I knew of Hallee's life as a performer in synagogue musicals, and shared that connection. Her life was long and full, and she's survived by an extraordinary family.
