The Jewish Agency for Israel mourns the passing of Marjorie S. Fisher, z”l The Fisher family has played an important role in creating the State of Israel and strengthening the Jewish people through their commitment to The Jewish Agency. Marjorie’s late husband, Max M. Fisher, led the reconstitution of The Jewish Agency in 1971 and was the Founding Chair of the Board of Governors, playing a leadership role until his death. Jane Sherman serves as an honorary member of the Board of Governors. Over the years, the Max M. and Marjorie S. Fisher Foundation has granted The Jewish Agency millions of dollars to rescue Jews living in distress and bring them to Israel, to care for Israel’s most vulnerable citizens and to work with youth at risk. We send condolences to the entire family and know they will continue in the footsteps of Marjorie and Max, who loved the Jewish people and our homeland Israel. June 23 • 2016 29
