  1. I wish the fireman a speedy recovery, as all of Lakewood wishes

    When we see these selfless heroes, we must take a moment of thoughtfullness to bless, give thanks and pray for all our public and private safety responders.

    B’Chasdei Hashem (In the many loving, kindnesses of God) everyone will always get home safe.

    It is even better to share your thoughts with them in person whenever possible. They follow the road of God with their unconditional love for all of us.
