  • Written for the Harrington House News, a Publication of the Staff of the Rhode Island Medical Center, an Unknown Author Had This to Say About Sidney S
    SIDNEY S. GOLDSTEIN, M.D. (1902-1962) by TERRY GOLDSTEIN AND BERYL SEGAL In a "Vignette" written for the Harrington House News, a publication of the staff of the Rhode Island Medical Center, an unknown author had this to say about Sidney S. Goldstein soon after his death: "He once said that 'people (living) after, never remember well those (who lived) before, unless they were awfully bad or raised enough public ruckus to attach something to their public personality.' "Sidney Goldstein would never 'raise a ruckus'. His personality was too quiet for that. And certainly he never sought the public stage other than to remark on the needs of the sick and those who cared for them. "This man had some strong dislikes. He disliked the person who was loud and insulting. He disliked the comfortable family member who would visit his patient-relative for 10 minutes once a year. But most of all he disliked being short. He felt it was almost un-American to be an executive and not be six feet tall. ." Yet this "short", quiet, self-effacing man attained a position of emi- nence in the Rhode Island State Mental Institutions and in Mental Health circles outside of the state. Doctor Max Fershtman, who worked with Sidney Goldstein and was a personal friend, writes: "Soon after Doctor Sidney Goldstein died a committee was formed with the idea of creating a lasting memorial for him. In view of his interest in Religion and Mental Health and his being the first president of the Rhode Island Chapter of the Academy of Religion and Mental Health the committee decided to erect a Jewish Chapel in his honor at the Rhode Island Medical Center." The committee consisted of Harry A.

Our flagship program, Adopt-a-Neighborhood, which is now up and running in four neighborhoods, has begun to bear fruit. Kiryat HaYovel, one of our adopted neighborhoods, is 5 About the Jerusalem Foundation the only pluralistic neighborhood in Jerusalem with an increase in residents, defying the citywide trend and a statistic we would like to see take hold citywide. 7 Vision and Mission Jerusalem 2011 saw literally hundreds of cultural events – festivals, exhibits, performances and special events – 8 Culture supported by the Foundation, demonstrating to the world that Jerusalem is a place of cultural growth.

There is pain in evoking the memory of our loved ones, even as we pray that the sweetness of those memories will add fragrance to our lives.
