As a member of the Rabbi Transition Committee, Melanie created the gift scrapbook for Rabbi Mangold. Melanie spent time going through all the entries from our TBE members for the scrapbook and crafting them into a beautiful Shutterfly book for Rabbi Mangold to take with her. Thank you, Melanie, for working hard to honor Rabbi Mangold’s time with us.
