Rabbi Abraham Feffer, spiritual leader of Temple Beth El where Resnick was bat mitzvah and confirmed — told the 850 participants in the serv- ice that "she achieved what she had worked for and died doing what she loved best ... She left us many achievements and much love." Feffer said that before her first space flight in 1984, Re- snick had stopped at his office with her father, asking for a blessing. • "I prayed the tradi- tional Jewish prayer — "As she goes in peace, so may she return in peace." Beginning his eulogy with a two-line quote from Mannah Senesch's famous poem, "Blessed is the Match," the rabbi said that Resnick "felt the need to extend the horizons of America and the world, to reach great heights, and to enhance life on this planet Earth ... She was the match and the 'flame in which she was consumed." Feffer called Resnick "bril7 liant, sensitive and compassion- ate. He said she had "an inner beauty — the beauty of a sensi- tive soul and a loving heart." A gifted musician when she played the piano, "there was more than technical mastery — you were privileged to hear her poetic spirit expressing itself," he said. Although he had first met Re- snick only when he officiated at her wedding in 1970, he had heard from her teachers that she had graduated Akron's Firestone High School with a 4.2 average, and that she was at the "top of her bat mitzvah class" of 1962 and her confirma- tion class of 1967 at Temple Beth El. ' In June 1984, Resnick, then 35, became the second woman to go into space. She and five male crew members of the orbiter Discovery were on a seven-day scientific mission. Born in Cleveland, she grew up in Akron and earned a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering at Carnegie-Mellon University in 1970. She was subsequently employed as a design engineer by RCA and worked on several NASA projects. From 1974-77, Resnick was a biomedical engineer and staff Fellow in the Laboratory of Neurophysiology at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md. In 1977 she received a doc- torate in electrical engineering from the University of Mary- land. Before her selection by NASA for space flight training in 1978, she was a senior systems engineer in product development with the Zerox Corp. at El Segundo, Calif. After completing her year's training as an as- tronaut, she worked on projects related to development of orbiter Discovery. Resnick's paternal grand- parents came from Kiev. They left Russia in the late 1920s and settled in Palestine before com- ing to the U.S. Her father attended a yeshiva in Palestine. Her family moved to Cleve- land where her grandfather, Jacob, was a shochet, and her grandmother, Anna, worked for Jewish organizations. Her father, Dr. Marvin Resnick, was active in many Jewish causes. Resnick was a "goal-oriented person," Rabbi Feffer told the memorial service. "It was as if she heard an inner voice con- stantly challenging her to greater achievements." Although he believed her synagogue attendance after leaving Akron was "irregular," Resnick's "integrity, her forth- rightness and commitment to truth was such that I wish many of those who do attend oirfrrtp • 7 9 'A • % NANCIIVG oiy C pi UTLASS C/ERA & vv.; ‘ CUTLASS di SUP REAfe 'w11 4111W NEW 1986 CUTLASS CIERA LS 4 DR.
