A Talmudic story tells of a traveler who once saw a man planting a carob tree. He asked him when he thought the tree would bear fruit. "After seventy years" was the reply.
"Dost thou expect to live seventy years and eat the fruit of thy labor?"
"I did not find the world desolate when I entered it," said the old man, "and as my ancestors planted for me before I was born, so do I plant for those who will come after me."

Honor Your Father and Mother
Michael Baum never dreamed anyone would ever call him a philanthropist. To his mind, he?s just a ?regular, hard-working guy? who?s about to retire after 30 years as a postal inspector. But to his delight, that?s exactly what he?s become after he, his brother Robert, and their wives, Prosper and Allison, established the Col. Jack L. and Pauline Baum Memorial Endowment Fund in loving memory of Michael and Robert?s parents.
