I am thrilled to be able to present this award to Robin Converse for all of her volunteer work over the years at Temple Sinai.

With this award, Robin, you join the distinguished group of benefactor award recipients at Temple Sinai – all of whom are identified by name badges they are wearing tonight.

Robin has had a long relationship with Temple Sinai.

Robin and David joined Temple Sinai in 1995.  That was when Ethan was in third grade and Iris was in Kindergarten – Ethan and Iris are now in their twenties !!

Over the 15 years of her membership, Robin has served as Social Action Trustee, VP Education, a member of the Caring Committee and Rabbi Search Committee, and is currently the Volunteer Coordinator.

But perhaps more important than these formal roles, her positive impact on Temple Sinai has been felt through her quiet presence at temple, her way of interacting with others and her sincere & authentic thoughtfulness and care.

I know for me, and for so many of us at temple, you, Robin, are a role model, someone we all want to exemplify, whose traits of humility, caring, thoughtfulness and inclusiveness have made Temple Sinai a warmer and more welcoming community.

Thank you, Robin, from all the members of Temple Sinai, thank you for doing God’s work.

I am proud to present you with this year’s benefactor’s award.

Emily Deakins
