I was very excited about the conference and all of the great bands, speakers and venues participating in it until I realized that it was happening during Passover, especially the first two nights. As someone who is preparing to change my entire kitchen and have two seders for my friends and family, I cannot stop the plans and cooking to attend the conference. I am just disappointed that these women who talk about their Jewish values and how important being Jewish is to them did not stop to think that there may be another more appropriate weekend to plan their conference. Kasi Nadler West Bloomfield Rabbi Roston's Imprint 0 LO I want to commend the Jewish News on its delightful article about the latest achievement of Rabbi Francine Roston, in her appointment as senior rabbi at Congregation Beth El in South Orange, N.J. ("Grondbreaking Achievement," April 7, page 77). I have had the pleasure of knowing Rabbi Roston for a number of years, spending time with her during her vis- its to Metropolitan Detroit. I wish Rabbi Roston, her family and new congregation great success in their new relationship. .

I showed the article to my father, and it brought tears to his eyes; he was very touched. I graduated from the University of Michigan in 1996. Had I known a great person like Max Fisher lived so near, I would have made every effort to meet him person- ally to thank him.

It is truly a gift that we give to them. It really put a lot into"per- spective for him.
