December 6, 2020 by HughE Dillon Leave a comment

For this special delivery, there is extra meaning as Singer recently underwent open heart surgery at the Hospital and wanted to bring some thanks to the employees working so hard and putting their own lives at risk. While he was in the hospital several times, he left the ICU and is recovering, but many COVID and other patients won’t this holiday.

The meals, prepared by Manny’s Restaurant and Delicatessen in Southampton, Bucks County, were sent over by jeweler Steven Singer. He was unable to be there in-person after undergoing open-heart surgery at Pennsylvania, where he says he received top-notch care.

Christine Tierney, Chief Human Resources Officer – Pennsylvania Hospital thanks Steven Singer representative for the delicious gesture, as Frank Anastasi, MBA, Chief Financial Officer at Pennsylvania Hospital University of Pennsylvania Health System and staff look on. This special feast for hospital workers is Singers’ way of giving back and part of his pledge to donate a portion from every gold dipped rose to help feed front line workers – while supporting local restaurants in crisis from the global pandemic. For this feast, Singer purchased each and every dinner from Manny’s Catering in Bucks County/ Southampton.

“My heart breaks for the world! It breaks for those who have lost loved ones, those who are ill, small businesses and independent restaurants and everyone eﬀected by this ugly virus, and that is everyone.” – Steven Singer. “We want to be there to support our local community now and long-term. These hospital workers put themselves at risk each and every day, and have to deal with things that are unimaginable to the rest of us. On this unique holiday with numbers soaring, we wanted to support them and say thanks – and let them know we are all with them.”

Singer and his team provided 650+ meals to employees giving up their holiday to serve patients with COVID 19, those in the ICU and other areas of the hospital. They enjoyed individually wrapped, free catered turkey dinners with all the trimmings and pumpkin pie.

These are strange days, as we struggle with filling time, dealing with isolation, family matters, home schooling and loneliness. It’s a huge sacrifice to stay healthy, to keep our family, friends and neighbors safe. Thank you for doing so, humanity thanks you and Philly Thanks You!!

It’s great to see so many people come together in this crisis to appreciate front line workers doctors, nurses, as well as housekeepers, store clerks, train conductors, essential workers who keep our world going even if we’re not utilizing it fully at the moment. Thank You.

Every Tuesday the City lights it’s buildings in blue to thank Frontline Health Workers.

I’m now 100 % healthy and a Covid19 survivor.

I was excited to shoot some of our favorite buildings lit up to honor Front Line Health Workers,

as well as Philly loves essential workers as the City lights up with a lot of love.

Social distancing at the art museum Tuesday night. Note the flags are at half staff.

Aaah the Hilton Penn’s Landing gave it a good shot, but when I look at this I want a soft pretzel.

The Four Seasons is amazing. I saw them put this together over a two night period. The first night was a little off, I tweeted to my people it looks like a heart, maybe. The 2nd night it turned out amazing.

The same organization who kept open the Liberty Bell during the Government shutdown last year, Visit Philly spearheaded a campaign to thank essential workers in Philly on Wednesday. Philadelphia says “Thank You”. Check out more on the project at CBSPhilly and Conrad Benner’s Streets Dept blog.
