With wine, hors d'oeuvres

of the Rose family members
in attendance, Sinai officials
and members of the com-

said Leslie Rose, son of Ed-

supporting modern science.
Dad would be proud of it."

In contrast, Annie Jerris of
West Bloomfield, who has
attended Hillel Day School
and Temple Israel's re-
ligious school, has had a
lifelong commitment to
Judaism.
Tonight those different
backgrounds are forgotten
as the two girls stand
together on Temple Israel's
bimah and celebrate their

When Marina's family

"We didn't know what a
bat mitzvah was, but we

Annie. The family agreed.
Mrs. Cohen said, "Annie is
