rabbi kogan is the head of chaddius chabad in russia appointed by the rebbe.

Four of her children live in Moscow, and one daughter lives in Israel.

May her memory be for a blessing. Words cannot adequately describe her mesirut nefesh, strength and commitment. She was a beautiful person, in all ways.

special woman
