    dear kurkus family tchyu,
    that our wonderful mati is no longer here with us
    in a revealed way. is unimaginable!
    mati’s special neshama,
    so deeply connected to the light of chassidus,
    and with her simchadig pleasant manner
    [of course with her beautiful smile on her face]
    is surely storming the heavens right now
    breaking all the barriers of this long,long golus.
    may she be a miletsa yishora
    for her dear family and klal israel
