Dear family and friends, My brother Steven’s superpower was the ability to bring out each persons better self. When he was born in 1963 with severe cognitive disabilities, the doctors gave my parents no hope that he would ever master basic life skills. Despite their predictions, Steven grew into a sensitive, caring and valued man. He had a wonderful sense of humor, an instinctive ability to read people and an incredible memory for the people who touched his life. He taught me to appreciate the potential of each person. During the pandemic, I decided that I wanted to become a first responder. Now that I am a volunteer medic for United Hatzalah I am frustrated by the time it takes to respond to emergencies in my car. The minilance will facilitate a quicker response time, which is crucial to save lives. That's why I am raising funds for a minilance rapid response vehicle to be based in central Jerusalem. This vehicle will help service the city center area which is more difficult to access in a traditional car. The vehicle will carry my brother’s name. Thank you for your support in saving lives in Israel and helping to honor my brother. Fannie
