this is a tribute
to rabbitson
harvey heft
who passed away on zion others several
days ago
the york site and the birthday of maisha
so that itself shows what type of
special
woman she was and in the chabad world
rabbits in hecht
is credited
for 65 years
or so running
camp and munna the flagship
camp of all chabad girls camps worldwide
and i could say for sure that
no one in khabar today has been there's
no one that hasn't been touched by
camper mundo why
because either they themselves were
campers there or counselors or staff
members
or
they have rabbis and repetitions or
repetitions in this case
that were associated with camp and munna
so
when they started it back in 1955 56 and
they're in mid-50s
together
with her late husband rabbi yaakov
yehuda jj heft
and they were massive venus and
dedicated completely to this camp
i had the privilege about 20 years ago
to interview rabbits and herrt
she told me amazing things
i included it in an
it was an interview about her late
husband about rabbi hecht and i included
it in my art in my chapter
in the book husso and the bavitch volume
one
and every year bar hashem
it's uh shared on the internet for his
yard sight to schwat i believe
i'm sorry tuba of
but anyway
one thing she told me was
that
the rabbit showed such pleasure
and such encouragement
to camp and munna both during the
lifetime of rabbi hecht and even after
his lifetime
and there was no let up
camp bamboona to the rebel was
as holy as mercury
now you could say it's my opinion
you could disagree it's up to you
however
this camper munna is the icarus creating
the keras a bias of the future of
jehovah the jewish mother the bad mother
the
the the khasid and hasidis there
we also know that rabbi
was responsible
and it continues today for at least time
where hundreds and thous of thousands of
children from their 40s till today
have gone through release time
public school children mostly and others
and we know that ebba was so
indebted
to him for this
and that this was again
a priority to the rabbi and rebecca
was right there along with him
you know when you have a large family
and they had a large family barack
hashem
and i comfort them on this opportunity
especially my good friend shimon rabe
shimon heft
and we grew up together in these
flatbush my father and rabbi would walk
together to the fabregas so there was
a friendship between the families
he had a large family
and
he was a rabbi of a prominent
shul in his flatbush
in addition to being
the
national director of
the national committee
the director of the national committee
and we know all the shalom bias issues
that he handled inside crownites outside
crownites
saving souls passions saving the shamans
and his
and his sons continue that way
with anti-schmad programs
coat busting it goes on and on
the hair family
is a
staple in the world of judaism of
titular judaism or forth without judaism
and in the world of lebanese and rabbits
and
put it all together if not for her
you can be a great man a great
philosopher and have great ideas of the
there's no shalom buyers there's no this
rabbits and heft
were a unit
a unit
that went strong and went
and did so much together
so
when we talk about
her passing and we talk about such a
person
who also happened to be a teacher in bei
snifki years ago
her
love
for another yid was palpable it really
was
i remember talking to her during this
interview about
issues
that come up in commute in our community
and she said to me to me she said a yid
zayed
if he's
it's
him he's not la babbage
he's still a year and we have to love
him
and we have to
look really care and do whatever we can
and
both she and her husband
rabbi
live this way
for example in camp motor they employed
not lubavitcher staff
why because they were right for the job
they didn't discriminate
it was drebba's camp no question about
it
but the
the message was
kind survival of the jewish home
love and harmony peace
and i think if what if one thing we take
for rabbits and hecht is her passion
and her direction
and forthrightness you know that she she
she led that camp i was told to my
sister who was a
a camper in camp amunda in the early 70s
and i asked to tell me something about
rabbits and heft i'm going to say a few
words on the the video
for the for the oil for people to hear
and she said
i don't remember i don't know much but
all i know is that she ran that camp in
such a gevaltic away she was on top of
it
she did not allow anyone to push her
around shove her around
she was the captain
she was the captain of the ship
and she ran a govaldiga ship
so
we benefit from from that and the camp
developed
to have other programs team programs
shlika's programs all kinds of different
programs that they brought in other
people
to benefit chabad girls in particular
to become the future leader leaders
and balabusters
and everyone in their way
committed to opening your house bringing
people in
and being a geshmaka
should be back with us very shortly
through kriyasan
me
