As the leader of the Adas Israel Congregation in Washington, he was called upon by President Lyndon Johnson in the wake of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy to help craft the Thanksgiving Day address to the nation. A few years later, he was called upon by President Jimmy Carter to assist with the Camp David Accords. He is remembered by the Washington DC community as a teacher and advocate for social integration. He passed away in 2012.
