Philip Weisbord
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I want to begin by extending my heartfelt appreciation to Brothers Joe Cohen and Mike Kris for their outstanding dedication and hard work in organizing this year’s memorial service and breakfast. Their efforts created a significant event, one that allowed us to honor our shared legacy and recognize the sacrifices of our brothers and sisters. Their contributions to this organization are invaluable, and I thank them sincerely for their commitment and service.
I also want to take a moment to congratulate our award and scholarship recipients. Celebrating your achievements and contributions was indeed a privilege. Your dedication and commitment to excellence are a source of our pride.
I look forward to seeing the impact you will continue to make within our department and beyond.
As November progresses, we are eagerly preparing for our Centennial Event, a celebration of the rich history and legacy of the NYPD Shomrim Society. This event on November 21st at the Jewish Heritage Museum is unique.
This milestone represents a century of resilience, solidarity, and the difference we have made within the department and the wider community. I strongly encourage each of you to join us for this historic occasion. If you cannot attend, please consider purchasing a journal ad or sponsoring part of the event. Your support is essential as we celebrate our society’s remarkable impact over the past 100 years.
On behalf of the executive board, I extend warm Thanksgiving wishes to you and your family. May this season be filled with gratitude, togetherness, and joy.
Fraternally,
Bro. Philip Weisbord
