Lighting the menorah for someone else

Hi,

One may not light the Chanukah menorah on behalf of another person unless that person is actually present, because doing otherwise would mean that some of the blessings could not be recited.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 1:190)

המצפה לישועה,
Mordechai
