BONE MARROW DRIVE CRITICAL for MISS STEIFF
SHARON STEIFF, a Maimonides School teacher for 20 years, has
provided a strong foundation of skills and shared her love of
literature with generations of students. Our prayers have given
her strength in her fight against leukemia. Now she needs our
support even more and the help of the entire Jewish community.
She needs the gift of life.
He who saves a single life, it is as though he had saved an entire
world
Talmud Sanhedrin, 37a
_
To serve a teacher is greater than to study Torah. Talmud Berachot,
7b
