Sarasota News Leader April 26, 2013 Page 112 TEMPLE EMANU-EL SISTERHOOD FETES RABBI ELAINE ROSE GLICKMAN More than 150 attendees feted Rabbi Elaine Rose Glickman at Temple Emanu-El Sisterhood's annual Honors Luncheon, held April 14 at the Lakewood Ranch Country Club. Glickman was recognized for her service to Temple Emanu-El — where she serves on the Sisterhood board; chairs the religious school social committee, Tot Shabbat and the preschool; teaches adult learning courses; and oversees Mitzvah Day, which draws more than 225 volunteers annually for hands-on community service projects — and the general community, where she serves on the executive board of All Faiths Food Bank and supports many other charitable organizations.

In addition to words of tribute and blessing from Temple President Michael Richker; Glickman's father, Dr. Larry Rose; and board member/good friend Sharon Kunkel, the event featured a video presentation, door prizes, a raffle, a silent auction and a performance by local singer Alli Fuchs, accompanied by guitarist Scott Stevenson. Glickman was also presented with a proclamation from the Sarasota County Commission marking April 14 as Rabbi Elaine Rose Glickman Day. Event co-chairwomen were Cindy Gilburne and Ethel Gross. Luncheon proceeds benefited the educational and scholarship programs of Temple Emanu-El Religious School. Glickman's husband is the Temple's spiritual leader, Rabbi Brenner J. Glickman.
