Dear Editor,
“Mitzvah” in Hebrew means "good/charitable deed." And a mitzvah is what was performed on election night by the members of Mahopac’s Italian American Club.
A local family was in dire need as the result of a fatal car accident. The club hosted an Italian feast in exchange for a donation to help the family. I was treated to home cooked pasta, meatballs, sausage and peppers, and dessert. All deliziosa! I believe that part of the flavor was derived from the commitment these wonderful folks put into the cooking and serving. The motivation was to help neighbors; the response by hosts and partakers was truly that of a community! All should be proud.
