At Tidewater Jewish Foundation, we are guided by a Board and network of community leaders whose professional excellence and civic commitment help shape the way we steward legacy, philanthropy, and the future of Jewish life in Tidewater. Their accomplishments extend far beyond the boardroom, strengthening institutions and communities throughout Hampton Roads.

That is why TJF proudly celebrates Board Member and Treasurer, Neil L. Rose, Esq. on being named the 2026 recipient of the Hampton Roads Estate Planning Council’s Distinguished Estate Planner Award. The honor recognizes individuals who have demonstrated exceptional leadership and longstanding contributions to the field of estate planning.

A former IRS and Treasury Special Attorney, Rose has spent decades advising families, businesses, and nonprofits with integrity and expertise while also serving countless civic and Jewish communal organizations across the region.

TJF also congratulates Randy Parrish, TJF’s Vice President and CFO who was recognized during the event for his service as a past president of the Hampton Roads Estate Planning Council, and Jennifer Waldholtz, who was acknowledged as an event sponsor on behalf of the American Cancer Society.

“These recognitions reflect the caliber of leadership that exists within our community,” said Naomi Limor Sedek, President and CEO of Tidewater Jewish Foundation. “We are proud to work alongside individuals whose professional achievements are matched by their commitment to service, stewardship, and impact.”

TJF extends congratulations to all those recognized for their leadership and dedication to strengthening the Hampton Roads community.
