I liked this article, originally written by Pete Donohue and appearing in the 1-28-13 edition of the NY Daily News. Rabbi Berkowitz is a model for all of us.
Rabbi Berkowitz is like a breath of fresh air, his work is extraordinary. The Rabbi is saving lives, just doing what he do does best. I want to take this time and THANK him, for being there for me and my family. There are not enough of Thank-you’s to Thank-you, keep well Rabbi and continue blessing families.
Perfect gentelman! I am not Jewish, but rabbi has your back regardless. God bless
