To Rabbi and Rebetzin Hirshfeld
and to the incredible Rabbonim and Staff,
There could be no replacement for the influence that
the Rosh Yeshiva and the Yeshiva itself had and continue to
have on me, even so many years after I left. The lessons
and core values I learned continues to inspire me towards
a lifelong path of growth. I value our personal relationship
no less than I did when we shared daily interaction,
and will forever be appreciative for the opportunity to
have been close enough to see the Rav as a person.
Thank you for tolerating my growing pains
with trust and love.

It is indeed an absolute privilege to have learned and remain associated with Darché Noam - a Torah institution that has deeply impacted our lives, those of our children, and the lives of thousands of other Jewish men and women around the world.  Darché Noam developed our love for learning and allowed us to access the classical Jewish sources in a deeper and more meaningful way. Our profound appreciation to the Roshei Yeshiva, HaRav Karlinsky and HaRav Hirshfeld, all the other Rabbeiyim (in particular "my" teachers, Rav Silverberg, Rav Kwass, Rav Cohen) and staff at Shapell's
and their respective families.
Bezrat Hashem during the next 40 years, Darché Noam should continue
to be matzliach in being marbitz HaTorah, and developing the spiritual lives
of Jewish men and women around the world.

Thank you!
Thank you so much Rabbi Hirshfeld
for opening my eyes to the Gemara
for taking all of my concerns about Tosafot seriously
for helping me work things through when I really needed to leave your hashkafa class
for having such wonderful, kind, and wise words to say at our Sheva Brachot
(even though I had forgotten to ask you to speak)
for telling me what you really thought (even when I didn't want to hear it)
for your wonderful Purim seuda, for your joy in Torah
for welcoming me back to the yeshiva every year at Return and Learn
and for a thousand other things
וייטב אלהים למילדות, וירב העם ויעצמו, מאוד
While it's true that Hashem rewarded Shifra and Puah with 'batim,' the first-mentioned
and greater reward was that Hashem made their work successful - and permanent - by making the people
strong and multiply.  We pray that Hashem will repay you the same way that he repaid Shifra and Puah,
by making your people - your talmidim and your Yeshiva, whom you've guided into the world
- strong and multiply.

You are a shining role model who ignites the hearts and souls of the many Jews fortunate enough to enter into your sphere of influence.  We have been blessed to be the beneficiaries of your wisdom, passion, humility and uniqueness in imparting/embodying Torah values & ideas. Thank you for all you do on behalf of Klal Yisrael, and may you and your wonderful Mishpacha (some of whom we've had the pleasure of getting to know better in the years since our Yeshiva stint) be blessed with long lives filled with tremendous nachas and hatzlacha!
 
To the amazing Darché Noam Institutions...
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the truly substantial role you have played in leading us down our Torah path!  The ways in which the Roshei Yeshiva, Rosh Midrasha, and other Rebbeim learn Torah, teach Torah, and live Torah inspire us to strive for an ever-greater connection to our most precious legacy and gift. One of the life-defining values that we took away from our time at Darché Noam was how absolutely paramount the virtue of Shalom is to the health and success of the Jewish people.  Not only has this ideal transformed our personal attitudes, but it has also helped to shape the core principles of our outreach initiatives. Thank you again for all you have done on our behalf, and may you be blessed with ever-greater success in harbatzos Torah and bringing Kiddush Hashem to the world!

In honor of Baruch and Tammy Labinsky.
 
Some of my fondest memories of the summer of 1992
are learning with Baruch b'chavrusa at the yeshiva in Kiryat Moshe.
I had returned to Shapells for that summer after my first year of law school
to learn in a special summer program dedicated to the mitzva
of Yishuv b'Eretz Yisrael. My summer was fabulous and so meaningful
and spiritual in a large way as the result of learning with Baruch.
The dedication of the Labinskys to their community is so inspiring
and no doubt has its origins in the relationship Baruch began
with the yeshiva as a devoted and accomplished talmid.
 
May their tireless efforts continue to flourish with the sweetest success.

In Honor of Rabbi and Rebbetzin Hirshfeld.
 
I remember well siting in the bais medresh in Kiryat Moshe
in August, 1990, at the opening of elul zman. The Rosh Yeshiva
addressed the talmidim to prepare us for what lie ahead
and what we could expect at Shapell's. I will never forget
his words: "If you came to us as a tomato we won't try
to turn you into a cucumber. We will turn you into a better tomato."
 
Such an unforgettable message, capturing the essence of the yeshiva,
was said, of course, by our beloved Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Hirshfeld.
Why was it unforgettable? Because it was delivered with the clarity,
simple sweetness and truth that are the hallmark of The Rosh Yeshiva's
unparalleled method of delivering Torah and mesorah, a method
instrumental in the growth of the alumni of this blessed institution.
 
My gratitude to the Rosh Yeshiva is unbounded for the foundation
in learning he laid for me.

In honor of Matthew and Natasha Neubauer.
 
How special and sweet it is to pay tribute to two wonderful friends
and neighbors for their dedication to the yeshiva we love!
As Matthew and I know, there are many young alumni from yeshivas
for the recently observant who populate our community
on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. When Matthew
and I introduced ourselves shortly after the Neubauers' arrived
in the community we were both thrilled to learn of our Darche Noam bond,
a bond that has grown into a wonderful, inspirational
and enriching friendship. I am so proud of Matthew
and Natasha for the shining example they set every day
in their home, in shul, and on the streets we daily walk together.
 
May you continue to grow in your unending dedication to Torah and chesed.
 
Bradley S. Hames

We have tremendous gratitude for all that Rav Hirshfeld
and the yeshiva has done for us and,
more generally, for klal yisroel.
 
The Derech haTorah that we were taught has become
the bedrock of our lives and the foundation for our
continued growth. Rav Hirshfeld has made an indelible
impression on us: his exemplary middos, his deep connection
to Torah and his genuine warmth and love for every talmid.  
 
We would like to wish Rav Hirshfeld and the yeshiva
continued hatzlacha, and many more years of teaching
and touching talmidim and Klal Yisroel at large.

I appreciated the dedication of Rabbi Shurin, Lynn Finson,

at Midrashet Rachel which helped me want to grow
in my Avodos Hashem.

When I first arrived at Darché Noam, the Yeshiva was still in its infancy
and I was a post collegiate "Jewish infant."  I had started keeping Shabbat
but I had no idea why. Rabbis Feigenbaum, Hirschfeld and Karlinsky
provided the framework which would guide me to become a Jewish adult
-one who would be enabled to make critical decisions about life.
And Michael Cohen provided the smile and outstretched hand
to make the process a smooth one, and Rav Herczeg had patience.
Rav Hirschfeld and Rav Tabasky helped me understand the "why"s,
Rav Farber opened my eyes and heart to the world of the Ramchal.
Rabbis Yosef and Reuven Kamenetsky and Yitzchak Shurin introduced me
to HaGaon HaRav Yaakov Kamenetsky Zt"l . Rabbi Eli embodied
Religious Zionism. And I was embraced by the menshlichkeit
of the families of the Rebbeim.
Thank  you all, especially Rav Hirshfeld,  for helping me gain the insight to understand my life goal and grow toward it-becoming an Eved Hashem.

Mazal Tov Rosh Yeshiva!
From the day I walked into Shapell's, the Rosh Yeshiva has been there for me in every milestone and all the growth along the way.  Every time I've come with two different sides and a tough decision to make, the Rosh Yeshiva has always provided a third position with wisdom, understanding and creativity. 
As a newly married man, I was able to regularly attend the married men's shiur. One week I missed it, and my wife felt the difference in my ability to relate to her. She said, "you missed Rav Hirshfeld's shiur this week didn't you?"  Our connection with the Rosh Yeshiva brings us that much closer to a real tzuras haAdam.
We have unending gratitude for the tireless efforts and and timeless wisdom

HaRav Yitzchak Hirshfeld,
for this richly deserved honor on the occasion of his "retirement".
 
Rabbi Hirschfeld, 
You made a difference on the first day that we walked into Darché Noam, as you gently and wisely drew us in by showing the wisdom of Darché Noam's derech
 
You were a rich source of support and a Magid Shiur who challenged talmidim to learn more deeply during the extremely special year and a half that we spent at the Yeshiva. You have continued to be a gentle and wise mashpia on us in the 25 plus years since we left the portals of the Yeshiva. We are deeply indebted for all that you have done for us and for
the hadracha bestowed.
 
May Hashem enable you to continue to fulfill your deep passion for learning and teaching Torah, and may He grant you and your mishpocho much b'rocho, hatzlocho v'nachas.

From the moment he went to learn at Shapell's, Peter developed a love of Torah learning and huge respect for Talmidei Chachomim.

He shared this message and made a significant difference where ever he was in the world: Johannesburg, Perth, Ramat Beit Shemesh 

May he and his wife, Shelley, be blessed with 
Brocha and Nachos from their special family

Rabbi Hirshfeld, Besides being my first Rosh Yeshivah, and caring about me, I want to thank the Rav for something else. The Rav was the unofficial shadchan in my meeting with the mother of my children. It was the Rav who said to go forward with the shidduch and approved my traveling to the US to meet her. From this came my three wonderful children and I will always be grateful for this. My children say 'thank you' as well. May Hashem continue blessing Rav Hirshfeld in everything he does and may he be blessed with health and a long life and continue spreading Torah to the four corners of the earth.
With deep appreciation,

To the Rav and Rebbetzin Hirshfeld, kol hakavod for co-founding Darché Noam and bringing your unique style of Torah to the world.  My wife and I are rich beneficiaries of Darche Noam and Midreshet Rachel v'Chava.  We spent our first year of marriage living in the downstairs couple apartment, forging strong relationships with the Rav and the other amazing Rebbeim and staff and building lifelong friendships that we still enjoy today 20 years later.  You should both have a lot of nachas from all that you've built and continue to have success in gashmiyus and ruchniyus.

To Baruch and Tammy Labinsky, Peretz and Shelley Katz, Matthew and Susan Schoenfeld, Amos and Ellen Levi and Matthew and Natsasha Neubauer, yesher koach and mazel tov on being honored by the yeshiva.  You should all go from strength to strength.

Mazal Tov Rabbi Hirshfeld on 40 years .. of developing a Torah true institution like Shapell's that its truly transformative. Thanks to you and your vision for this amazing yeshiva, I am so lucky to have grown in my learning Gemara, and hashkafos. I will never forget our Ivrit class where we studied the Rambam and many primary sources in Lashon Hakodesh. I was so lucky to get to know the Rosh Yeshiva and our relationship has grown so much over the years. May you and your Rebbitzen be zoche to see much Bracha V'Hatzlacha from all of your family and your talmidim for many years to come. We hope that you will continue to visit us for many more annual visits to Chicago, where Zevy looks forward to seeing Abba's Rosh Yeshiva!

לכבוד ראש הישיבה, מו"ר הרב הירשפלד, שליט"א
Dear Rav Hirshfeld, shlita, our beloved Rosh Yeshiva,
We take this opportunity to share some words of הערכה and הכרת הטוב for 40 years of leadership,
educational pioneering, and service to Klal Yisrael. We stand in awe at the
בית גדול of תורה and תפילה, of תשובה and דרך ארץ, that, with tremendous סייעתא דשמיא,
you and your partners built in ירושלים עיר הקודש. 
יישר כחך for fulfilling העמידו תלמידים הרבה, bringing the mesorah of Torah, Gemara, Lomdus, and Tikkun Hamidos to thousands of Jews beginning Talmud Torah as adults. As rebbeim and talmidim, we benefited and continue to benefit from the rare combinations you have cultivated within yourself - giving guidance and direction while fostering independence, preserving the mesorah with a refreshing open-mindedness, living with deep humility as well as powerful conviction and presence. A serious approach was always tempered with good humor. Your calm demeanor and purposeful leadership proved invaluable in times of upheaval. And your love of growth pushed us to constantly refine, reshape, and improve.

Your love of Torah is contagious. We thank you for sharing with us the joy of a true chiddush, of a clear and deep analysis of a machlokes Rashi and Tosafos that sings out from their words. The sound of your tefillah on the Yamim Noraim and at the כותל המערבי inspired כוונה through נגינה. You are a role model of integrity and a living example of one who takes upon himself responsibility.  We bless you and your family with long years of health and happiness, of nachas from all of your descendants and all of your talmidim. We pray that you can continue for many years, learning and teaching Torah in the Beis Medresh you so love, and with talmidim you so love.
