foreign and some of you may know that
there was a very sad story
that happened a short time ago
and many of you here most of you here
know the name of David winners
David was a very very unique
friend
of mine and a friend of project Inspire
as a matter of fact if I recall
correctly he spoke here at the very
first project inspired convention
and dovet is a young man who
well the film will really tell us who he
really was he was on his way to the a
job convention in Maryland it was in a
terrible car accident never
but I think that what happened
in the events after the Patera
is that the family understood
that the greatest zaker for David is for
us to learn from him
and he's someone that we constantly
learn from
he used to call me by the way every few
months or so with some other idea
why don't we try this why don't we try
this I have a new book I have a new idea
let's he was a care of machine
because he loved Eden his obvious Israel
had no parallel
so let's take a look just for a moment a
little bit about the greatness of our
wonderful past friend of David one of
yours film number five
when somebody comes into my office to
apply for a mortgage I'll often be in
the middle of something else and then I
might have to have him wait for me for a
few minutes in my Lobby I have copies of
cure of orientance farm people will pick
these up while they're waiting for me
and leave through them and if I see that
you know have a potential client so to
speak I may encourage you take the book
with them closing presents for my not
yet from clients often will be a cure of
oriented safer okay with your Judy's and
my brother death or
something along those like my
father-in-law
lived and breathed
Israel my father would always
differentiate between a living and a
livelihood
for a livelihood he would work but his
passion what he did for a living
was reach out to call Israel I think his
mission was to make every Jew feel proud
that he was a Jew he knew how to focus
on a person to see what would bring out
the happiness of religion in that person
that was his great concept he wanted to
teach all of khai Israel he had a dream
to build an Empire of teachers
he would use every medium that he could
whether it's social media
or just meeting people or the shops
table I met Rabbi Winnie ours through
Facebook so it was introduced totally in
a non-religious way when I started
talking to him I was kind of surprised
because I had thought somebody
of that level of from kite would be a
little more rabbinic people love talking
to him and everywhere all over people
asking questions they love his wit is
his his love for other Jews they felt it
they felt loved by him
we all felt love loved by him he loved
reaching out to other Jews because he
cared about them
he wanted them to have that same
wonderful life that he had
he knew that yeah this guy was wonderful
and he wanted to share that with other
people I think he was non-judgmental in
other words you know there are many
people who when they see a person who's
not religious they'll criticize him but
to him that didn't that didn't face him
he just felt it was a lost soul somebody
who's looking for meaning and he tried
to inspire them uh he got to know this
woman who worked behind the captain CVS
that uh found that she was Jewish not
from because she was expecting and she
told my father that you know there she
was another boy so my father came in and
said you know to our house and said we
have you know six months to convince her
never breasts and when she had the boy
she had a medical circumcision she had
no religious circumcision and it broke
his heart he felt terrible about it
laughs
my father passed on
and during the Shiva
this couple comes with their little baby
to the Chavez she told my my mother I
wanna honor your husband Rabbi David
when years I want to honor him
I want to do a proper brief me love for
my son who's now six months old
she said you know now I feel so bad that
I didn't listen to him about the bris
I never gave my son the Jewish name I
would love to name my son
after Rabbi Winnie ours so I said I got
a great idea for you why don't we do it
when does the Shiva end the Shiva end
Sunday morning let's transform this
house which is a house of mourning and
to a house of Happiness let's do it
Sunday afternoon I was the sandic
and my brother
gave the creation he named the baby
after my father
quite a wondrous thing to watch how the
events unfolded and to actually see the
success of some of our labors
quite uh
a moving experience it is a great
comfort
to know that so soon after he's gone
there's a little adorable gorgeous baby
boy that carries his name
now this little boy will be connected to
rabdovira from winning ours forever my
in this world
and uh
we definitely miss it though you miss
them a lot when I put on fill in for the
first time that feeling that he
connected me with
um I felt an inner spark that I had
never felt before and it just made me
feel completely
renewed he built the Legacy
he built the Legacy for generations to
come
with his positivities with his his love
for Chloe Israel is forever going to
permeate to the rest of the family and
hopefully to everybody he was in touch
with
as Jewish people it's our responsibility
to pierce through the darkness that is
the world that is the craziness of the
world in a world God mad that we live in
and sets the right example
it's not a matter of being better which
we're not
simply a matter of having a different
responsibility
let's be the lighthouse
let's set a good example
