Karen got to meet Rena sofer at the Pgh Coffee & Chocolate Festival on Saturday. It was a little emotional, as Rena recalled her childhood growing up in our congregation. Her father, Rabbi Martin Sofer was our spiritual leader from 1973-1982. Rena has since become an Emmy Award-winning actress, but we knew Rena before Hollywood came knocking! Unfortunately, Rabbi Sofer passed in 2011, but he is fondly remembered as part of the chain (l'dor vador) that nurtured our Jewish community here in Ambridge. His memory truly is for a blessing. z''l
