He was a board member for Beth El, the founder of the Downtown Harrisburg Association and a board member of Harristown, and the Harrisburg Parking Authority. In addition to contributing their time and their talents, Bob and Cynthia made financial contributions to the Jewish community, as described by Cynthia, \u201cevery year, for more years than I can remember\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Their commitment to others is summarized by their children who write, \u201cWe are so proud of their support to the Jewish community over the many years. They have been an inspiration to us, their children, and their grand-children, and to those whose lives they have touched.\"<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-806-1-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-806-1-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_black-studio-tinymce widget_black_studio_tinymce panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div class=\"textwidget\"><p>The Susquehanna Tzedakah Society (STS) was established as a giving society of the Jewish Community Foundation of Central Pennsylvania.
