Our Heavenly parent, hear our voices

Bless them with your kindness and protect their families

בריך אותם בחסדך והגן על משפחותיהם

Bless those who are wounded with refuah shelayma, healing of body and a healing of spirit

ושלח רפואה שלמה לכל הפצעות

Embrace the souls who have departed  this world

אמץ את הנשמות שעזבו מעולם הזה

console those who mourn.

מנחם מי שמתאבל

and comfort the bewildered.

 עזור מי שמבולבל

Help us each to build a world safe for children

עזרה כולנו לבנות עולם בטוח לילדים

שהם יכולים לחיות, ללמוד ולתקן עולם במלכות שדי

And let us say: Amen.

Richard, I agree. This road has so many potholes that were fixed, it dips and the county trees haveRead More lifted it up in areas that now hold water. I have ben living here for over 30 years, and I cannot recall it ever being done. It needs to be done soon, I so agree with you. Maybe Mangano will see this and do something, then again if we lived in Bethpage, it would of been done already.
