Board Bios
Harriet Cooper –
I've been an active member of Ohavay Zion for over 40 years and I've served on numerous synagogue committees. I am a past president of sisterhood and have served on the board of directors for 4 different presidents.
David Ades –
Hi, I'm David, I'm a Leo, 6'1"....oops, sorry wrong bio. Anyway, I have been around OZS for most of my 30 years. After graduating from Penn 8 years ago I came back and joined the Lexington Fire Department, where I continue to work as a Lieutenant firefighter/paramedic. My commitment to the Synagogue revolves mostly around the community aspect of Judaism. In the past I have worked with the youth group, mentored in a local school, and have been and remain a faithful member of the Wizards (the Synagogue softball team). P.S. I like long walks on the golf course.
Ira Cooper –
I've been involved with or a member of OZS since 1958, attending Sunday and Hebrew school there. I was Bar Mitzva'd at Joe Bolognas. (in the bar). I'm married to Tina Trent, am 44 years old, and am President/owner of QED, Inc., where we design and manufacture surgical and dental lighting equipment.
I've been a member of Chevra Kaddisha for 2 years. I'm actively involved in getting computers connected to the OZS network so teachers and students can find Bar/Bat Mitzvah portions, and general info on anything. I would love to help the synagogue stay current while embracing our past.
