  Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of Jewish American 
Heritage Month to recognize an extraordinary individual from Rochester, 
NY, whose commitment to service and leadership continues to uplift our 
Jewish community: Nathan (Nick) Robfogel.
  Nick Robfogel has long exemplified civic responsibility, compassion, 
and tireless devotion to the betterment of our region. As Chair of the 
Board of Trustees of the Max and Marian Farash Foundation, he has 
guided philanthropic efforts that have empowered countless individuals 
and organizations across Rochester. Prior to his retirement, Nick 
served as a distinguished partner at Harter Secrest & Emery, where he 
combined his legal acumen with a deep-seated sense of justice.
  A dedicated member of the Board of Governors for the Jewish 
Federation, Nick has played a pivotal role in strengthening Jewish life 
and fostering a culture of generosity and community-mindedness. His 
decades of service and thoughtful leadership have made him an 
indispensable figure in our region.
  During Jewish American Heritage Month, it is my great privilege to 
recognize Nick Robfogel. His legacy of philanthropy, wisdom, and 
community-building stands as an inspiration to us all.
