Last week, you lost your battle with the horrible illness that took your Neshama to Gan Eden. Your dear husband and children, your extended family, your friends, and communities and students all know how hard you fought – up to the last second with the last tiny bit of energy.
You fought and fought - you so wanted to win - to continue to live and give. But, Hashem is stronger, wiser and more experienced - and He needed you to come Home.
Don’t be sad.
You did in fact, win one battle - a very big battle. A battle, which will continue for generations and generations to come.
