Bernard Edelman

A man of great nobility whose life was filled with dignity, love and
compassion for his fellow beings.

His concern for the gallant brethren in Israel and special interest and devotion he
displayed for Magen David Adom inscribed his name inerasably in the records of
staunch supporters of the State of Israel. The loss of this noble giant leaves an
unfillable void in the Jewish Community, and the community of mankind.

His indomitable spirit will live in our hearts.
