The rebbetzin’s funeral was at the Lederman Synagogue in Bnei Berak Saturday night at 10:00 p.m.
Bd”h. She was 79 years & was have to become 80 at rosh chodesh shvat
What sad news. Speechless. Two of my children and I merited to be in her home this summer. She was an unbelievable tzadeikes and a true eizer k’negdo to ybm’ch”le’cm Rav Chaim. I hope our media will see fit to publish stories about her to inspire our wives and daughters.
Baruch Dayan emes!!
while we were all davening for her fathers health she was to pass before her father.
BDE. I thought Rabbi Elyashiv was also very ill? Has anyone heard about his condition. It seems we are losing many of these eldery rabbonim the past few months.
Thank you for posting a picture of the Rebbetzin as I have never seen her. May she be a Melitza Yeshara.
“Baruch Dayan Ha Emet”.
B”DE, what sad news, the Rebbetzin was a tzadekes and without a doubt her neshoma is already in Gan Eden. She will be terribly missed. Anyone who had the honor of meeting her even for a few seconds will remember the amazing feeling of being in her presence and having a sincere and heartfelt brocha bestowed upon them. May her neshoma have an aliyah and may she always be a meilitz yosher for K’lal Yisroel.

What a Tzadeket and how fortunate to pass away in such a way. B’DE
