“Though I don't attend synagogue even on the high holy days, I'm still connected to my faith and heritage through my grandmother. She was able to escape the Holocaust by emigrating from Poland to what is now the State of Israel. She's a remarkable woman, and I'm so lucky to have her in my life.
"I would never abandon my faith, and I think that’s because of the values and traditions that my grandmother has passed on to me. She has me over for Sabbath Friday night dinners, and I'm usually the one who reads the blessing prayers in Hebrew. Our relationship is very special because we share Jewish traditions. She reminds me of who I am and where I came from.”
