Welcome to the Pardess Chana
American Program Website for 1990-1991
Welcome to the Pardess Chana
1990-1991 website. It's been a while since we all sat around
in our gas masks, waiting for Saddam - or the Enforcers - to
strike! What has everyone done since then? This site is here
to answer that question. As you can see, we have a couple of
names up already. If you want to add yourself to the site, please e-mail Josh.

Where We Are Today
Lin Gabay
(formerly Linda Gabay) -
After her year in P.H., Lin went on to study at the South African
program in Hod Hasharon. After spending a bit of time in America,
she eventually returned to Israel. She now lives in Jerusalem,
where she's studying business at the Talpiot branch of Touro
College. She says
she now calls herself "Lin" because it's easier for
Israelis to remember than "Linda." Her phone number
is (053) 403-682.
Josh Effron
- While he was
at P.H. (for eleventh grade), Josh took a correspondence
course for twelfth grade. This made it possible for him
to finish up high school basically right after he left P.H. (He
did have to take a proctored test for the correspondence course,
however - he got Rena to be the proctor!) He then went to Tel
Aviv, where he lived for a while before starting his studies
at Hebrew University. A year later, he began his service in the IDF, where
he served on the staff of a military prison. After the army,
he finished up college, earning a BA in political science. After
that, Josh went to live in Jerusalem, where he soon found himself
managing the famous Mr. T's.
He then went to Boston University in Beer Sheva, where he got a Master's Degree in management.
After graduation, he decided to start a few websites. Josh now
co-owns JewishMarines.com and GIJew.com with
Mark Reichman, a fellow PH'er from 1995-1996. He also co-owns
StateofIsrael.com, iHunger.com,
and WeDebate.com, among others. He is currently back in the States,
studying law at Loyola Law School, in Los Angeles.
Golan
(Paul) Azani, of blessed memory - Golan was at P.H. for both eleventh and twelfth
grade. After graduating high school, he fulfilled his dream of
serving in the Golani unit of the IDF. He bravely served his
country in both Gaza and Lebanon. During part of this period,
he lived with Ran and Josh in Ariel, along with three other PH'ers
from other years. Golan's life was tragically cut short in an
auto accident while he was on his way home from Lebanon. He will
forever be missed. Kenny Sahr, one of his roommates in Ariel,
wrote the first Hebrew-language travel guide to Jordan and Syria and dedicated
it to Golan.
