CITATION

Be it hereby known to all that the

Somerville City Council and Mayor

offer their sincerest commendations to

Phillip MarionWeiss

In recognition of his 40 years of service as Darshan,

spiritual leader, at Temple B’nai Brith of Somerville.

As the City of Somerville has changed and evolved over

the past four decades, so has Congregation B'nai Brith.

As Darshan, he has sustained the congregation,

providing a welcoming, inclusive, and diverse home for

this city’s Jewish community, in addition to

building bridges with those of other faiths and cultures.

The Councilors and the Mayor offer their gratitude and

extend their best wishes as he takes on the role of Darshan Emeritus.

Offered this 26^th day of November, 2019.
