    I remember Mrs. Tornek as such a warm and kind person… always with a smile and an open home, especially to all the Machon Alte girls. May her memory be a blessing and may Hshem comfort her family.

    such a special lady, knew her from ascent/ machon alte, always took the time to pay attention to each girl as though they were her own grandchild, so sweet and caring, with good old-fashioned wisdom always ready to share! her and zalman’s lively shabbas meals and chocolate cake were par excellence ;-) she will be missed… may her family be comforted among the mourners of zion and may they follow in her larger than life footsteps…

    Baruch dayan haEmes. I was in her sukkah on Denver’s West Side before they made aliyah. Such a sweet, warm, generous person. May her memory always be for a blessing and may we merit Moshiach mamash now.
