Teach your children . . .

I want to share with you all a tribute to the late Hessie Gordon, who passed away recently after an unexpected illness.

While most of you may not have known her, many of you do know her son Brian, his wife Lynn and their children. The Gordon family, and Lynn's parents, lived in Charleston for several years, and left a lasting impression on us and upon the Jewish community in general. They moved to Atlanta about 7 years ago, and Charleston's loss has been Atlanta's gain.

Brian's brother Antony authored the tribute to their mother. It is short, very touching, and filled with essential wisdom.

May Hessie's family be comforted, and may we all be inspired to incorporate these lessons into our lives.
