She was a very nice lady.
She used to walk around Boro Park and go everywhere with her identical twin sister Mrs. Jacobowitz whom was nifter about 30 years ago.
Until a few months ago she used to call me and order some work from my small factory. She used to call me by my first name and she used to cry to me about all the tzuris that she has. I used to drop it off to her at her townhouse on N. Lake Dr. and recently her grandchildren used to pick it up for her. I never charged her anything and than she used to call me up and bentch me. I remember her husband, he was a chushiver did, he was nifter a long time ago, he was also maarich yumim, he was much older than her.

She was also a customer of mine, and it was the highlight of my day when she called in (or texted!) for service. She had so much Chochmas Hachaim to share, as she went through so much almost single handedly, especially with her son who should have Refuah Sheleima. She always refused to get interviewed on record, but I really hope her wonderful children and grandchildren will write down some of her legacy. Yehi Zichrah Boruch.
I remember her husband as the Baal Koreh of the Mirrer Minyan in Boro Park back in the 1970’s
Any shiva details?
