We became more aware of Beth Israel of Bloomsburg after the attack on a synagogue in Pittsburgh and through Press-Enterprise reporter Susan Swartz, who is a member of Beth Israel. Instead of shying away from public notoriety following the Pittsburgh attack, Beth Israel of Bloomsburg remained open to its community and even increased connections with the people of Bloomsburg regardless of their faith. We are making this donation in honor of and in memory of Sam Dion, whose friendship we were blessed to enjoy through his art and his involvement in Bloomsburg's Rotary Club. We miss you, Sam Dion!
