    Bubby Itkin always took such care in her davenning & saying Tehillim, we all should learn from her. Bubby also personally gave Chanukah gelt, baby & birthday gifts to over 150 grandchildren who live around the world. She lived the Rebbe’s words & davened for Moshiach every day. We all really miss Bubby, & try to follow on her ways
