Bonim," The Shofar (monthly newsletter of Tifereth Israel Synagogue,
San Diego), page 7: The Chevrat Bonim (TIS' Legacy Society) inaugural party on
September 11th at the (Leslie and Jacob) Bercovitz home was a lovely event
honoring those who have pledged to leave a bequest to Tifereth Israel or have
set up endowments for the synagogue. Sylvia Hartman, a member of TICO (Tifereth
Israel Community Orchestra), played beautiful harp and piano pieces while guests
visited and enjoyed the view of El Cajon from the Bercovitz' patio. We
honor those who are leaving a legacy to TIS either by pledging a bequest or by
giving an endowment. (Endowment donors are bold). Irvin (z"l)
