Values Taught by Example

About to make shacharit minyan at a shiva house. Few things are as important in a community.

When I was a boy and Dad was president of our Conservative shul, we made every shiva call that we could. My immediate family might not have been ritually observant but we made time for people who had suffered a loss.

I learned that particular Jewish value not from Talmud Torah but from the example set by my parents.

Boker tov.
