Letter from R. Sacks about "Halachot Vahalichot" (1990)

Dear Norman, Your sefer arrived this morning. Thank you so much for sending me a copy. I am about to leave for Israel shortly for a long study leave prior to taking up office as Chief Rabbi, and I hope to have the opportunity to study it intensively then. I have read some of the chapters which have appeared in print before and found them uniformly superb – yeshar kokhekha. A really impressive achievement. I am lost in admiration. Thanks again and with warmest regards, Yours sincerely, Jonathan Sacks

Letter from Dr. Avi Rockoff with Rosh Hashana Greetings (1996)

Dear Rabbi Lamm, I hope you and your family are well. I understand you have a sabbatical coming up, which I hope will turn out to be both restful and productive. My son Ari, who is involved with dormitory administration this year, tells me of many new additions and refurbishings. He even says the food, and especially the shabbos cholent, is awesome. If that isn't a סימן ברכה, I don't know. Best wishes for a כתיבה וחתימה טובה.
