It was a pleasure and a privilege to be a part of the very special This Is Your Life event at the Watford Colosseum, thanking Rabbi Salasnik for his amazing service to the community.

Under his watchful eyes and guiding hands, the community in Bushey has grown from just a couple of hundred to the thriving membership of over 2000. I know that the Rabbi’s commitment extends way beyond the Jewish community, he represents the very best of the Anglo-Jewish experience.

Rabbi Salasnik and his wife Judith have not only spread Torah values, but enriched wider society through their shared commitment to charitable and civic life.

Hertsmere owes them a debt of gratitude. I wish them both a long and happy retirement in Israel.
