    I was one of her first students in Kindergarten Oholei Torah in 1957. Was a sweet and eidel person.

  • A lovely lady

    She davenned in my shul until recently. She was so aidel, tznius and emesdik. I used to watch her daven for a few minutes to get inspired before I started to daven myself.
    I will miss her.

    Her father was R’ Leizer Devokin HYD (Tzertzershker). He was one of the first Talmidim in Tomchi Tmimim in Lubavitch. He was a very respected rov in a town called cherson. He was murdered by the nazis y”s on tziom Gedalia 1941 along with his wife, daughter, son in law, and aprox. 5,000-8,000 other Jews, in a field a little north of the town. He was a friend of R’Itche der masmid and was great Chosid and yerei shomaim, and insisted on not being in any photograph, hence no photo of him exists today. He has 4 daughters and no sons. Rebbetzin Esther OBM was his youngest child.

      he once complained to the rebbe rashab that he had no sons and the rebbe answered him that he will have sons-in-law that are better then sons
