In His Remembrance

 May Rabbi Leynor’s memories inspire us to seek those qualities of mind
and heart which we shared when we walked life’s journey together.

May we help to bring closer to fulfillment
Rabbi Leynor’s highest ideals and noblest strivings.

May Rabbi Leynor’s memories deepen our loyalty
to those things which we valued and shared -
faithfulness, love, SHALOM and devotion.

As long as we live,
Rabbi Leynor’s memories too will live;
for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.
