    I knew Rashi since she was a little girl. My memories of her are strong as ever as I always found her to be deep yet light, funny yet intense, gorgeous yet humble, smart yet grounded individual. When I saw Rashi at her her sister’s wedding 2 years ago with her radiant skin glowing and her smile of true happiness after not seeing her for years we embraced, kissed and I had tears in my eyes. I love the Lieberman family. Rashi will be the light onto the world now and she will continue in her merry spirit for her family. The world will rise above in her merit. Genia Epelbaum Taub
