The meeting announcement is posted below. Thank you to everyone who was able to attend and share this important day with us.


Our annual memorial meeting meeting, commemorating the loss of family and loved ones - parents, children, and friends will be held on May 17th in the the Edison Hotel's Floral Room. “Our Lida Stories”, pictures, fliers, and items of interest that we have been collecting and displaying over the past few years were on display.

We look forward to your attendance and participation at our next event. All we request is an understanding heart and a listening ear. Snippets, even a belief statement, can capture a mural of emotions that describes the past and powerfully impact all of us gathered today. Please encourage your children, grandchildren, relatives, and friends to attend and participate. We want to share this special time with them as we remember, together, the loss of our dear ones. As the number of original “Menchen”, the remaining few dwindle, the importance of the second and third generation increases. Please feel free to offer up any ideas that can benefit the United Lieder Relief Society.

Also please note that we are always looking to update “Our Lida Stories” with additional information and photos. This journal renews interest in Lida and the Society and remains a work in progress. The more memories we share, the deeper the commitment can be for the 2nd and 3rd generation.

If you cannot attend and wish to make a donation, please send your check made out to:
United Lieder Relief Society
1001 East 21st Street
Brooklyn, NY 11210

Thank you. We are looking forward to seeing you and being together once again.

Sincerely,

Amanda Lapidus
President
