Mark and Nedra Oren on their wedding day
Our children attended Beth Am religious school, where all were Bnai Mitzvah (including one on a Federation family mission to Israel). We have six grandchildren; one a Ph.D candidate in neurobiology at Yale, one an entering freshman at Wake Forest University and four in high school. All attended Jewish Day School. We are fortunate to spend summers in Aspen, CO where we belong to a reform synagogue. We’ve been blessed with the leadership of the late Mike Brodie and the awesome Jacob Solomon as our Federation mentors. May we all go from strength to strength.
