Commitment to community, particularly education plays a major role in his life. He is one of the founders of the Solomon Schechter Day School, a Jewish parochial grammar school that provides outstanding secular and religious education. Although all of his children are grown, what started out as parental involvement, he continues to volunteer for the Port Jefferson High School Prom Construction Committee – where the entire school is transformed into the prom theme, but of greater importance, it provides a safe environment for students on that special night. He can be regularly seen about town and commuting to work on his bicycle – it’s 1 part exercise, 2 parts fun. Photography is one of his regular hobbies where landscape and nature scenes interest him most. |
