Incoming President’s Welcome MessageGood evening. Welcome to the Decalogue Society ofLawyers 88th annual installation dinner. When I look overall that we have been through in the last year I am amazedat the resilience of our board, our executive director andour membership. We’ve experienced an actual plague. Wehave a war in Eastern Europe and famine in other partsof the world because of that war. We have seen our longheld civil rights eroded and we have seen assaults on ourdemocracy like never before. We have seen a rise in antiSemitism. Yet, we never faltered in our mission.Despite these challenges, our members have never stopped pursuing justice. Wezealously advocate for clients. We equitably decide cases. We serve in governmentpositions to make sure that those guilty of crimes are held accountable and thosewrongly accused are not. Or we protect consumers and the environment. Our pursuitof justice has not been stopped or even slowed down.Logistically, we transitioned almost seamlessly to online events and meetings thanks toa lot of hard work behind the scenes. Over the last year we attended CLEs remotely, hada remote Hannukah party and Judicial reception and matched up 15 law students andyoung lawyers with mentors. In my speech I will expand on the issue of mentorship.Now we have the opportunity to meet again in person.I want you to think of all that had to happen to get us here today and in person. I wantto thank all of you who got vaccinated, who social distanced and who quarantined ifthey were unsure of their Covid status. We all here because of all of our sacrifice.So, enjoy your evening. You’ve earned it. Thanks to our sponsors who made itfinancially possible to meet in person and congratulations to all of our honorees. Asthe new president, I look forward to a year of in person CLEs, events and meetings.Sincerely,Hon. Myron F. MackoffPresident, Decalogue Society of Lawyers
