It was the most unusual Jewish Federation annual meeting, and not just because Heritage publisher Jeff Gaeser did not have to wear a coat and tie to present the Human Service Award to Hank Katzen. Held virtually through Zoom, Gaeser read his speech from his kitchen and Hank and his wife, Marcie, accepted it from Israel - not really. Katzen had a virtual background of the Western Wall. He and Marcie must have been time traveling as well, because a few times each momentarily disappeared and then reappeared on screen.

The entire meeting can be viewed on YouTube. Go to http://www.youtube.com and type in Jewish Federation of Greater Orlando Annual meeting to hear all the reports, the introduction of the new board of directors and hear Gaeser's and Katzen's speeches.
