block walls,” said Friedman, who
now lives in Huntington Woods.
“They didn’t block off the win-
dows. We used to crawl through
and play. Kids in the neighborhood
would play flashlight tag at night.”
Eventually he made his way back
inside after completion of the build-
ing, attending High Holiday services
there as well as Hebrew school
classes.
Cheri Eisenberg, too, lived near
the synagogue. “I grew up in Sharon
Meadows subdivision and went to
Hebrew elementary school and shul
at Beth Achim in the late 1960s,
early 1970s,” said Eisenberg, who
now lives in Atlanta. “Rabbi Arm
lived down the street from us, and
our dog regularly used to chase him
when he jogged in the neighbor-
hood.”
Relaying a bar mitzvah memory
from her brother Steven Eisenberg,
who lives in Vermont, she said, “He
loved animals and we always had
lots of them at our house, including
a horse which he boarded at a near-

Larry and Leanie Gunsberg under the chuppah

other on the bimah during his bar
mitzvah, Rabbi Arm leaned over and
said to Steven, ‘You know I’ve got a
terrible problem with raccoons in
our garage; do you have ideas how I
can get rid of them?’ This familiarity
of being neighbors with the rabbi
hopefully eased my brother's ner-
vousness.”
GETTING MARRIED
Among the weddings that took
place in the Beth Achim sanctuary
was Steven and Merle Band’s 1984
ceremony. “To walk down the aisle
was a magical moment in front of
our family and friends wishing us
mazel tov and happiness in the
beginning of our lives together,”
said Merle of West Bloomfield. “We
were also lucky to have had Rabbi
Benjamin Gorrelick and Cantor
Max Shimansky marry us. It is sad
to think of the room being gone
because of all the simchahs and the
memories of people who were there
who are gone now. But we are going
