In the quarter-century that Moishe has been president, he has built OHEL
into a world-class organization, with talent, warmth, and endless hard work.
Together, with Rozi always at your side, you've shown us how to do chesed,
humbly and always with a big smile and encouraging words.
If there's anyone who could step into Moishe's shoes, it's Jay Kestenbaum!
We are proud to honor our dear friends, Jay and Chani, who do everything quietly,
generously, and selflessly, and who are always so much fun. Wishing you much hatzlacha!
To Mel Zachter and David Mandel, continue all your amazing work!
And to the Kaylies, we are awed by the amazing legacy
that you have left and continue to perpetuate.

and the entire family for all that you have done for the children of OHEL, for Camp Kaylie.
May his memory be for a blessing.

felt so good about handing over the reigns to you. You have certainly greatly exceeded
his expectations. Your caring, vision, and wisdom have been instrumental in OHEL's spectacular growth. May you continue with good health and wisdom to guide OHEL,
and may you and your Aishes Chayil, Rozi, have much deserved nachas from your family.
In honor of MR. JAY KESTENBAUM
We at OHEL are very proud that you have assumed this leadership position.
You certainly understand and set a great example of the meaning of Achrayus - Responsibility
to OHEL and to Achaynu Bnei Yisroel. May you be blessed with the energy,
good health and wisdom to guide OHEL.

Congratulations and best wishes to our dear friend and incoming OHEL Co-President,
Jay Kestenbaum
Thank you for agreeing to try to fill a very big pair of shoes. It will not be easy
to meet the standard for OHEL leadership that was set by Moishe Hellman,
but if anyone is up to the task, you are.
Thank you to Mr. Moishe Hellman for your many years of service -- we hope
that your renditions of Hamalach Hagoel will conclude OHEL's dinners
for many years to come, in the best of health and happiness. And to Mr. Mel Zachter
-- we appreciate your continued service to OHEL as the senior member of the Co-Presidency.
Finally, we remember with great fondness Mr. Harvey Kaylie o.b.m,
who along with his wife Gloria ybl"ch, was the visionary and founding patron
of the special camp that bears his name. We wish Gloria many years of good health
and nachas from her beautiful family and from her many "children" at Camp Kaylie.
Fondly,
Congratulations to
Jay Kestenbaum
on this well-deserved award.
May you continue to be an inspiration to all.
