Meital
• Meaning: Water of Life (Mey Hatal) – purest of waters that give plants life
• Hope – she is always giving to others
• Hardest time of all 3, Middle name we had for a while
• A few weeks ago, in Kiryat Shmona and Kfar Blum waterfall – it came together. While we have many roots, from London to Detroit to West Virginia, Passaic, Europe, and even Modiin, but the foundation of our immediate family, was in the most beautiful place, northern Israel – defined by water
• Hope – her life (and all of our lives) are calm and peaceful as those waters
Adina
• Means gentleness
• The Daled and Nun spell out Dan - Uncle Don Kates – who would for sure bend the rules to include her in the Donny club. If you take the letters עדינה and rearrange, it comes out as דני ע״ה.
• We loved Uncle Donny, he was like another grandfather for me. And the three characteristics that defined Uncle Donny most to us were:
o Connection – to people, to his community, to Hashem, even between other people in Shidduchim
o Honesty – he would always tell you exactly what he felt and thought
o Justice – doing the right thing was always so important to him, and he believed so much in the right thing happening, in his life, and even as an umpire (which I was lucky enough to have him ump some of my games).
We hope that Meital Adina carries these important characteristics into her life, as she has quite a legacy to continue.
