    This great isha chasuvah had a tremendous impact on hundreds and hundreds of talmidos, in all the Lakewood girls high schools, she filled them with haskafaos amitios and yiras shamayim, and mostly with love and pride in their Yiddishkeit.
    A tremendous loss for klall yisroel. T’hay zichah beruchah.

  2. @Jo- levaya at JFK scheduled for 8 pm.
    What a great loss for klal Yisroel. I knew Reb. Miriam well, she was an incredible person who was always always unfailingly positive. T’hi zichra baruch.

  3. levaya in israel is 8 pm tonight (israel time) in the new Yeshiva Eitz Chaim (her brother is the Rosh Yeshiva) on rechov strauss. Kevura in Har Hamanuchos. As Rabbi EB Wachtfogel said last night, not only would she be considered a Great woman now and also even if she lived in earlier generations, there is NOTHING positive you can say about her that would be an exaggeration. If i was adding a name to the blessing for my daughters to be like the eimuhos, i would add her. YZ”B, She was a daughter of the Goen and Chussid R’ Dov Shwartzman and a Granddaughter of The Great Rosh Yeshiva Reb Aharon, she was a wife who made sure her husband had NO tirdos of this world (in 22 years of illness she almost never let her husband come to doctors), and even with all her years of pain she was the most positive and uplifting person i knew. She she be a meitetz yosher for her family that includes all bnei torah and klal yisroel.
