We want to say thank you thank you thank you we had the must wonderful and Special evening at last nights service. It was absolutely wonderful and everyone thought it was so beautiful. Thank you to the Rabbi, Chanie, Raizel, and everyone else who assisted in last nights service. I'm so glad N has been able to grow up at the Chabad and soon M will start his Hebrew school. Have a wonderful Shabbat, J
Rabbi Kramer, Chanie, Rey, Raizel, and the entire Chabad family, We just wanted to reach out and thank everyone for making M and E’s b’nai mitzvah such a meaningful and beautiful experience. The service was amazing and we appreciate all of the work everyone put into it. The day was filled with love and happiness and we are so grateful for all the time, guidance, and care that went into preparing for this milestone. You made our family feel supported and celebrated in every way.
Dear Rabbi Shimon and Rebbizen Chanie,
You have made this Shabbas delicious and meaningful by sending a box -load of much needed personally prepared meals two of which were used for kiddush meals this past Shabbas. It helped me and the Health Aides to focus on Barry and his recovery from surgery.
I can't thank you enough for sending the meals. It was the kindest, most thoughtful of gestures. This has been a horrible ordeal for our family with many highs and lows. You just reminded us that there is love and support for our family. I have wanted to join a women's group at Chabad and hope when *** is settled in rehab, I will be able to. Please thank all of the people involved. We are truly grateful. Please remember to keep *** in your prayers. He needs them from all of us.
My aunt and I came by the end of November to your breast cancer service area. I want to say "thank you" for your kindness and generosity. We appreciated the time and effort you took to show us your services, wigs, hats and eyebrow tattoos.
Dear Rabbi and your Family,
Thank you so much for all the help you have made possible for me. The food really means a lot. There are days I don't have the strength to go out to shop, and all I have to do is reach into the freezer and pull out a delicious kosher hand cooked meal from a young Jewish kid. What a joy. Happy holiday!
I just want to thank you for coming to visit me and talk to me about the next step in my recovery. I really enjoyed speaking with you; you gave me hope for the future. I hope you come to visit me again soon.
Thank you for the beautiful services you provided for Yom Kippur. You made our holiday meaningful!
Thank u so much for the beautiful shabbos food and treats. We can't thank u enough! Shabbat shalom to all.
Thank you for a wonderful Seder. It was quite enjoyable and everything was mitzoyan!I hope to see you in the near future, G‑d willing.
Chanie, thank you so much. A Rabbi just called me saying he received my name from you and Rabbi Kramer and he will be dropping off some food this week for my family. Perfect timing for me... I am visiting the kosher food pantry tomorrow. I wanted to thank you from my heart...
I sincerely appreciate your kindness.
We want to thank you for making J's Bar Mitzvah a meaningful and joyous occasion. You were so patient with J and taught him not only to prepare for his Bar Mitzvah but also life lessons about Judaism and how to read Hebrew.
The ceremony was beautiful! One we will treasure and look back at the video and pictures with pride.
We are also honored to be the first Bar Mitzvah in the new space. We appreciate all the effort that went into it as well.
Thank you for your dedication and support to our family. We appreciate you, your wife and the whole Chabad family and what you are contributing to our entire community.
In reference to our 2015 Chanukah program:
My father built the temples in Merrick but we NEVER had anything as lovely as this night! What a blessing that "you all" are to our town.
As last year, I totally enjoyed bringing my family to your High Holiday services. My granddaughter "bought" me the right to carry the Torah on the 1st day of Rosh Hashanah. What a wonderful honor!
Look forward to being in your new home. Have a wonderful year!
Thank you so much for having us for the Holiday services. I did enjoy it very much and I especially loved all your stories. Health & Happiness for you and your family.
I was pleasantly surprised and very happy that the services for Rosh Hashana went very well...As you know my daughter and her husband and two of my grandchildren live in Merrick. They tell me a lot of good Mitzvahs your doing to build the Chabad of Merrick. For the High Holidays we will join our children and grandchildren in Merrick and will join your services. I will support you in building a synagogue for Merrick.
Dear Rabbi Kramer & Chanie,
I want to take the time to thank you for your hospitality in welcoming my daughter and myself to your Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur services. It was so refreshing and we are grateful you made us feel welcome. I was craving to be part of the festivities of the holiday and partake in the services and with your welcome, I felt at home.
Thank you and may you and your family continue to strive helping others and be well.
For all the blessings that Hashem has bestowed on our family, I give thanks.
Please accept this Tzedukah in memory of all our beloved departed.
Best wishes to you and your beautiful family for a Happy & Healthy New Year in a world of peace and appreciation to Hashem.
Thank you for building a Mikvah in our area- we currently use W. Hempstead & Plainview. The G. family shared the good news with us.
Dear Rabbi and Rebbetzin Kramer,
Please accept this small donation as a thank you to you and your dedicated staff for being in Merrick and providing an outstanding and meaningful Jewish education, to my grandson J.O. and all of his friends.
May Hashem continue to help you grow and nurture the Jewish souls of our young children.
With much love and gratitude,
Dear Rabbi kramer and Family,
Thank you very much for the very inspiring Rosh Hashana service!
Best wishes for a Gmar Chasima Tova.

I just came home from your Rosh Hashana service. I have never been to your services before. I always went to a reformed or conservative temple. I did not know what to expect. At first, the service seemed very unorganized. Well, that soon changed. Rabbi Kramer should do “stand-up comedy,” as a second career. Not only was I entertained, but I was able to relate to his entire sermon.
The only other rabbi that was able to do this was Rabbi Spar in Smithtown. He has since retired to Florida. I have not gone to temple since that time because I don’t understand or read Hebrew.
This new experience today made me excited to go to temple on Yom Kippur. I am looking forward to a pleasurable and memorable day.
To The Kramers- Rabbi & Chanie,
Thank you for all your knowledge and support. We will treasure all that you have taught our daughter. We look forward to her Bat Mitzvah.
Thank you so much for your kind words at yesterday's service for our parents.
My entire family was moved by your uplifting & thoughtful tribute to them. You are a very warm hearted and personable man- one who defines the very meaning of mensch.
May you always have this wonderful spirit and may you and your family be blessed by the almightly in all you do.
Thank you for two beautiful Seders. As always, I enjoyed the experience, as if I were personally leaving Egypt. And, as an added bonus, I brought 4 souls with me out of their own Mitzraim. I hope you enjoyed your Exodus to Canada for a week. I look forward to Shabbat.
I would like to thank you for the lovely Bar Mitzvah Service you conducted last night for my grandson, M.W. We all enjoyed the event and in his honor, I would like to send you a token of our appreciation that you can use for a project at your Center for Jewish Life.
A Happy + Healthy Passover to you and your family.
Thank you so much for having us to your home for Shabbat. We had a wonderful time and the food was fantastic!
Please accept this donation for the Chabad Center, You do such important work for the Jewish Community and we appreciate it very much.
We look forward to seeing you and your family again.
Thank you for a great first daycare/preschool experience. Thanks for being so accommodating to my nap schedule and milk/formula needs. I have made so many good friends. I look forward to learning and playing more this summer!
Thank you so much for taking such good care of our son, and always with a smile! We really appreciate your dedication to his education and welfare. And we are very grateful to you for all the special accommodations you make for us throughout the year. It is in your merit that the ELC runs so smoothly. Thank you very much for all your hard work, motivation, and enthusiasm!
Thank you for taking such great care of our son. Hope you all have a nice summer.
Dear Rabbi Kramer & Chanie,
Thank you for your prayers while my father was in the hospital for 7 weeks. No one else showed an interest except for you both. We appreciate it. Now he's home recpoerating. Happy Shavouot.
Thank you so much for the Pesach food. It is very much appreciated.
Thank you. Thank you so much for ALL you did for me. Please, thank the people who donated as well as the very nice couple who went out of his way to bring me the groceries.
Have a most joyful and reflective Pesach.
Chanie, Thank you for this.
It is a lot of food and will be well used for Pesach.
Rabbi Kramer, I am always left speechless by the tremendous work you do for our community. And I personally cannot than you enough for the personal support you have given me. Our community is so much stronger with you here. Thank you so much!!!
You ladies succeeded in every way! The atmosphere in the room was amazing! after this, no cancer sufferer will ever feel alone!
It was an incredible night.The warmth, love and kindness could be felt throughout. Our community is so blessed to have you & the Rabbi living and working amongst us. I was thrilled to be part of the evening.
Wishing you & your family a very good shabbos.
Yasher Koach to all of you and the wonderful committee for a fantastic evening of sharing and rasing funds for such a deserving cause. I wish my Mother would have had such wonderful support and outpouring of love before she died. One of my fondest memories of her in the hospital was when Chabad came to her bed to bench Lulov. It has been 43 years since she passed away, but I will always remember that special moment for her.
Thank you for what you are doing for the community.
The services were inspirational. I liked how you told stories and provided explanations of the parts of the service as the chazzan was davening. I left the services each time with a feeling of calm, peace and contentment. Thanks again. I look forward to attending further services with Chabad of Merrick.
Thanks for the wonderful experience you've given me. I couldn't have gotten it elsewhere!
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for taking out the time you did from your busy life to send my father off properly.
