Steven Asher & Ina “Louie” Elfant Asher
We both started at Ramah in the Poconos when we were 12, and continued as madrichim while in college. We met only briefly; he was one of the big kids. Years later, when Steve was living in New York and I was living in Cambridge, we met again at a Connecticut Jewish weekend retreat. We married 3 years later. We have 4 children who have gone through Schechter and Akiba, and our son Jacob has spent the last 2 summers as a madrich at Ramah’s Philadelphia day camp.
