“Long before I met Bernie Sosna he was an avid supporter of the 54^th Street Hebrew Home.  In fact, my first date with him was to their annual dinner dance fund raiser.  His mom, Clara, was a resident for a time and received excellent care.  Bernie, and now I, am continuing to support such a valuable asset to the Jewish community where residents receive exemplary care.

When Seacrest in Encinitas opened a number of years ago, we toured the facility and it is impressive.  A clearly loving community, the residents seem happy and engaged in the many activities available.  Most importantly, the care the resident receive is outstanding. The facility has a range of care levels and residents can make a seamless transition according to their physical and mental health needs. The staff exemplifies the very best in long term care for the many loved ones residing at Seacrest.  I am honored through my love of Bernie to have met the wonderful people who run Seacrest and he would be so happy to know that we will continue to support such a deserving organization through both the 211 Club and a legacy donation.”    — Susie Sosna, 2026
