BD"E. A holy soul...

I had the z’chus to have my first Shabbos meal in Crown Heights in the Barber’s home. Mrs. Barber was always saying Tehillim, and always had a nice word to share. The Barbers became my family in Crown Heights for many years. I am, fortunately, still close to family members. She brought some beautiful people into this world. She will be missed.

May her soul have an aliyah and may it come back down here b’guf gashmi again!
