By the Grace of G-d 27th of Nissan, 5737 Brooklyn, N. Y.

Greeting and Blessing:

I was very pleased to receive your good wishes on the occasion of my birthday, especially as you were thoughtful to express your feelings not only in heart-warming words but also in special efforts in Torah and Mitzvos.

I send you, in return, my prayerful blessing in the words of our Sages of blessed memory: He who blesses others is himself (and herself) blessed by G-d, the Source of all blessings

May G-d bless each and all of you in all your needs. From His full, open, holy and ample Hand.

And in your case, the greatest blessing is that you should go from strength to strength in the study of the Torah and doing Mitzvos, and in your daily conduct in general as befits Jewish boys and girls, of whom the Torah says: ״You are children unto G-d, your G-d."

With love and blessing,

M. Schneerson
