Helene and I were students at JTS and had met briefly there, but it was at Ramah in the Poconos, where we were both staff members in 1963, that we got to know each other better and our romance began. Obviously the frequent opportunities to see each other fostered by the camp environment and the shared values that brought us there enabled our relationship to blossom much more rapidly than would have been possible in a different environment. It is one of the many things for which we are eternally grateful to Camp Ramah.
