Letter From the Publisher

It is with the utmost
pleasure that I present to you the 2008 edition of THE REAL FLORIDA
JEWISH DIRECTORY. It is personally my 10th year producing resource
directories for you starting with a 1999 publication of The Florida
Jewish Directory.
I humbly thank so many
special people I met on my ten year journey so many friends, readers,
advertisers and devoted staff, who, through some very
difficult times, helped make this trip satisfying and worthwhile. This
year’s edition will be read and utilized by well over a million people
in both print and online. The directory features an annual Jewish
calendar, maps, Jewish demographics, the most up-dated listings of
synagogues, Jewish federations, Jewish community centers, Jewish
agencies, Jewish schools, kosher facilities, shopping areas, beaches,
parks, museums, family entertainment, toll free airline telephone #’s,
emergency phone #’s, a special Israel Section and interesting Jewish
related articles. To facilitate your search of a specific company, at
the beginning of the directory, we provide you with a Category Index and
in the back of the book an Alphabetical Advertisers’ Index including
telephone numbers and page numbers of display ads.
Within these pages, you will find the finest hotels & banquet
facilities, caterers, photographers, invitations, limousine services,
car dealerships, rentals and so much more. We also provide you with a
premium Senior Section with the most selective facilities and most
reputable of home care
agencies. Our advertisers are of “superlative quality” and deserve your
utmost patronage as they make this book a possibility. We are viewed and
contacted by thousands throughout the world and you can visit our
advertisers’ websites through our site.
I would like to thank our small but diligent staff who have become a
second family to me. Roberta, I couldn’t have done this without you and
can’t thank you enough for your hard work, constant support and
friendship. A special thank you to Syd and Les for all their help.
I welcome Studio Graphics back in my life and thank them for their
professionalism and special talent. I would be proud to recommend them.
To my children – I love and miss you more than anything. Thank you for
all you do and all you are. A very special thank you to our Editorial
Director, my daughter Wendy for her computer knowledge and constant
resource efforts.
A Happy 60th birthday to Israel, “our home away from home”.
May it prosper in peace forever.
We wish you health, happiness
and prosperity in 2008.
