Dear Ellen: Mindy and I want to thank you for letting us see the enclosed copy of your talk at the affair for Rabbi Rabinowitz. It is really a masterpiece! I think it is something he will treasure for a long, long time to come. It reflects upon a great deal of work that was put into it by someone who is not only highly talented, but utterly convinced of the encomia she is bestowing upon the guest of honor. Congratulations again, and all our best wishes. Incidentally, I quite sincerely appreciate your kind remarks about my Halakhic discourse on Shabbat Ha-Gedal.My fondest regards to your parents,Cordially yours,RABBI NORMAN LAMMNL/leEnc.
