How To Write A Commemorative Speech
ood Morning Ellin,

First, congratulations on your retirement. A rest is well deserved, although knowing your Energizer Bunny persona, I don't imagine you will be idle.

I wanted to reach out to you with your assistance in helping a student with some financial obligations he and his family will have as a senior in high school.

Mike Pimentel has been a positive influence and mentor for my boys since they first met him as 8th graders. He echoed our family values of work ethic and discipline. He not only taught our boys about physical well being but supported them emotionally as well.

    A few months ago, thanks to the vivacious Tammy Gillis, the accomplished actor Jim Thorburn was brought to my attention (they are married, in case you were unaware). While his name was somewhat unknown to me, his talent and works included some of my classic and current favorites. As I have been faithfully following his career all this time now, I was ecstatic to promote his upcoming film, Engaging Father Christmas, and he was kind enough to chat with me briefly about his role in this upcoming film as well as a few other notweworthy details. RH: So nice to get to chat with you again.…

    Today we are celebrating your Bar-Mitzvah, the time that they call the “acceptance of all the mitzvot.” As your older brother, I can tell you that its not the easiest part of growing up, but Dad would want me to say that you must always work your best to realize the importance of being a Jew and too love judaism. In celebrating your Bar Mitzvah this shabbos, and going on in life, you must always remember the core of who you are as a jew and what you represent. As I watch you grow and become a man, I think about who you are already.

    Never say Never was one of the most inspirational movies I've EVER seen, and i don't think I'll ever see one that beats it. Every day i hear hateful comments on Justin, things like " He's gay" " He sounds like a girl" " he's so fake" And all this stuff, haters can go ahead and hate, but if you actually took a second too stop the hating, and listen too the words that come out of Justin's mouth, listen too his songs, watch his movie, I promise you'd see him from a whole new perspective. I always thought Justin Bieber was just some hot Canadian that had a good voice, but he's so much more. He's given up so much for his fans, it's unbelievable. He'd rather sing his heart out at a concert then lay down when he's sick, he puts the people he loves…
