Shaina Charitonow ‘s maiden name is Ebert. But her mothers maiden name is ZIRKIND. bOTH OF THESE HOLY SOULS HAVE LEFT US. tHEY SHOULD BE HOLY MESSENGERS AND GUTTE BETERS FOR ALL OF US.
It is so sad to hear of the loss of my sweet cousin Shaina a.h,. We were very close as children, going ice skating during our winter break from school and spending many a shabbos together. I remember how thrilled I was to hear she was getting married and moving to Buffalo as the wife of a Chabad shaleach She always made me feel loved and special and although I have not seen her for decades because I live in Israel, I will miss her goodness and purity.
Baruch Dayan Emes,my husband and I were Zoche to be guests in the Charitonow home years ago for Shabbos,she made us feel like family

I am so shocked and sorry to hear of the passing of mrs. charitonow! I went to buffalo to be a counsellor there in the summer about 5 years ago. She made such a strong impact on me. Such a loving person, a mother to everyone.

Moshiach now!!
i was devastated to hear of the petira of shaina a.h. – and you may know that sadly , my rebbetzin Sara Leah (bas yehuda leib )was niftar last Shabbat, so i have an idea what you’re going through. as your friend & colleague who worked with you in Buffalo all those years ago and who knew your rebbetzin, it is particularly ironic. she was a terrific strong hearted , and warmhearted woman. May the Aibishter give us the koach to be “veyiso’ooh” – thats really the only alternative we have.

Yossi… Boruch Dayan Hoemes…it is so painful :’-( … Hashem needs to end this terrible darkness.
Boruch Dayan haemes. Sholom Ber you were a real inspiration for me in London and I wish you long life. I’ll be calling you some time in the next couple days.
May the Rabbi and his children have comfort from the fact that Shaina touched so many people in her lifetime. Mostly i think she was “cool” i grew up in Amherst and always wanted to be on the inside of things . talking to Shaina and her being my friend made me feel i had arrived that i wasn’t an outsider to yiddishkeit anymore. May her family celebrate only simcha’s from now on. And my she intecede the Eibister to send moshiach now . And to Shaina’s Mother I would like to say Blessed are you for raising such a… Read more »

I’m so sorry for your loss,I sent my condolences to your family
Dear Mushka, may Hashem give you and your family a lot of strength during this difficult time. Count on me for anything you may need.

I second that BDH
I am so sorry to hear! Baruch Dayan emes!
Her mother’s maiden name is ebert and not zirkind although she is related to the zirkinds. In the beginning they are for sure going to be sitting in Crown Heights.
We should only hear and share simchas together with the coming of Moshiach!
Please post shiva info…NY or Buffalo? We need to know, and go!!!
hamokom Yenachem Eschem, may hashem give you the strength you will need at this most difficult time.
she is a first cousin to the zirkind family. her mother may she live and be well mainded name is zirkind.
Where are they sitting shivah??

I never got to meet you, but I met your daughter Mushka and she is an amazing girl. I wish your family only nachas.
painful…….will always remember you.
May Hashem bench you now and always with unlimited revealed goodness & kindness!
ברוך דין האמת כול כך כואב
My condolences, she was indeed a special woman
I’m thinking of you and wish you and your family only more happiness and simchos
Boruch Dayin ho’emes
It’s not right, it’s beyond reason. This shlucha of Amherst was privately, without fanfare, doing mitzvahs daily helping the local jewish women. She will definitely be missed by all. Only Simchas from now on for Charitonows.
We need Moshiach NOW!
No words….special woman….
BDE, that’s so young, and so sad.
