Thanks
My background is limited and I can see from the site that I'm omitting many steps, but I'm growing. In particular, I came to the site wondering if I should be lighting candles for Passover. I now have my answer and the prayers. Many thanks.

Thank You from the bottom of my heart
Thank you for your wonderful, insightful website. I now have all the resources I need to celebrate not only Passover, but every holiday. Once again, thank-you for such an informative plethora of information. My father's yarhzeit is tomorrow and I have even been alerted not to miss that event. Once again, thank-you!
