Lerner presented the mezuzah on the birthday of his late mother, Susy Lerner, who died last September, in memory of her and her late husband, Ira Lerner. In a brief ceremony, Rabbi Leberman, spiritual leader of Tifereth Israel Synagogue, said the mezuzah “represents the tradition of from room to room, place to place, you should go with God’s blessings and remember that God is with us.” (Photo: Ben Dishman)
