Following articles about those congregations, I was contacted by Bea Premack of Aberdeen, who informed me that Congregation B nai Isaac in Aberdeen is alive and well, and just celebrated the centennial of its founding. So this past summer, my South Dakota sojourn included a visit to Aberdeen, to meet with Bea and Herschel Premack, learn about their tiny congregation of 12 individuals, and celebrate centennial-plus-one of this synagogue the oldest in continuous use in South Dakota, and the only one in the state affiliated with the Conservative movement. Despite having never met me, the Premacks welcomed me into their home. I quickly learned that my hosts and guides are the backbone of this community, long involved in civic life and at the center of its Jewish life. Herschel was born in Aberdeen and has spent his entire life there. His parents were married in 1922 at B nai Isaac, in a double ceremony with another couple from Sioux City. Herschel was quick to namedrop the twin girls who traveled with the other couple from Sioux City to stand as flower girls: Eppie and Popo, aka Esther and Pauline Friedman, later known to the world as Ann Landers and Dear Abby. Bea, an Omaha girl, was attending college when she met Herschel. She had grown up in a Conservative synagogue in Omaha that her parents helped form. She and Herschel married and settled in Gail Pickus, Herschel Premack, Bea Premack outside Congregation B nai Isaac, established in 1917, it's the oldest synagogue in continuous use in South Dakota. Aberdeen, establishing their Jewish home and raising three children while Herschel worked in the family scrap metal business. We visited B nai Isaac late one Friday afternoon, where I was introduced to Jerry Taylor, B nai Isaac s current president. Jerry showed me many artifacts, photos and papers relating to the history of B nai Isaac. There I also met long-term member Gail Pickus, an artist originally from Chicago, who came to Aberdeen with her late husband when he established his medical practice there; as he built his practice, they raised their three sons. Joining us for pre-service chat in the building lobby were a young couple who had relocated to Aberdeen to work at the local college, as well as a college student originally from rural South Dakota, who has an interest in Judaism. We entered the sanctuary, where Herschel went to the bimah and led the Shabbat In honor of the birth of Lev Asher Feinstein from Dave & Marilyn Aronson; Mark & Matilda Oppenheimer To the Congregation from Marilyn & Dave Aronson; Mitch Bernstein; Lorna Gallanter; Lin Rostrom; Alon & Sandy Spektor; Judith & Michael Peterson With sympathy to Nancy Feinstein and family on the passing of Nancy s father, Donald Edison, from Dave & Marilyn Aronson; Mark & Matilda Oppenheimer YAHRZEIT FUND In loving memory of Ed Ezrailson from Cathy Ezrailson The Flame Steakhouse and Lounge, Aberdeen, SD evening service. Bea brought wine and candles to the bimah. The service was brief and traditional, and concluded with all of us on the bimah for kiddush. Following the service, we had a chance to get to know each other better over dinner at The Flame on Main Street a perfect small-town supper club. There I heard more stories about the history of the congregation, the remarkable community service of the people around the table, and the extended relationships throughout the Midwest and beyond that they have maintained over the years. I learned, for instance, that both Bea and Gail have been named First Lady of Aberdeen, a general community honor bestowed on active community members. I learned about the Warren Buffett connections of Omaha s Rabbi Kripke, friends of the Premacks through Bea s family and in attendance at the Aberdeen weddings of both Premack daughters. Rabbi Kripke briefly hit the national spotlight when he made a $7 million donation to support restoration of the JTS library in New York following a fire it turned out he was an early investor with Mr. Buffett. And I learned about important and timely work that Bea and Gail are currently involved with the Aberdeen Area Diversity Coalition, a tri-faith organization of Jews, Christians and Muslims. Among its activities is the hosting of an Israel booth and cultural performance at the Northern State University Culture Fest, despite the fact that this year there are no Israeli students attending NSU. Congregation B nai Isaac and its members are a cornerstone of Aberdeen life and a beacon of Jewish practice for out-of-town visitors, Jews from even smaller towns who need a place for holidays and special occasions, and non-jewish neighbors who want to learn more about Judaism. Traveling to Aberdeen? You will be warmly welcomed by the members of B nai Isaac! Renew your membership today! Not yet a member? Join us today!
