Kind Words about Me
From one of my earliest Hebrew School teachers, Dan Aldouby, who wrote this for my birthday, May 11th, 2012:
“…It’s been quite a journey to this day, hasn’t it Albert Kaufman? Who
would have thought, those many years ago, that one of my favorite
imps, would grow into a rational, sane, thinking, mensch? I’ve been
very happy following your trail, and am so happy that, at least, one
of my students turned out to be a minor earthshaker. What you have
accomplished, thus far, to help so many other human beings,
automatically allows you entrance to any of the heavens of your
choice. You may sit at God’s footstool, study Talmud with Moses, or
you can choose to find Jesus and ask him why he allowed all who
followed to twist his teachings, or—-if you are so inclined, you
can join Allah and loll with all your virgins. However, you may also
wish to return to earth. This poses a question –Assuming that
you are reincarnated as a different species, would you be content to
just plant your roots in one place and produce aromatic flowers?
“Tis a puzzlement. Hamlet put it very well, with his famous
soliloquy. Anyway, enough of this droning. May you live to be 120
with all dentition in place, no need for medications, and reasons to
smile and laugh every day.
Happy Birthday,
Dan Aldouby

Albert, I find your optimism infectious. You have a resilient optimism that seems to resurface over and over in the face of confrontation. Your kind love permeates the lives of those around you. Your sophisticated technology savvy is a most useful contribution to the entrepreneurial world and to me personally. The music that you channel into being is so incredibly uplifting. Joy to the world. May 2022 bring you as much joy as you create around you. Love, Bruce
