B esides carrying out my rabbinical duties I have spent over 30 years in the classrooms of our yeshivos.
Over those three decades I’ve had the privilege of teaching and connecting with many students.
I so appreciate it when they come back to say hello though I often don’t recognize them at first. The boys were 12 and 13 at the time I taught them so I cannot be expected to recognize these fully grown men as they reintroduce themselves to me 25 years later.
We chat for a few minutes often share humorous memories from our times together in the classroom I inquire as to what they are doing and we part with a smile on our faces.
