RivkaA Has Passed Away

Three years ago, I met blogger Rivka who put up Chemo and Coffee. And again on a few other occasions, like a Succot picnic:


Here's a picture my wife photographed at that Bloggers Conference:


She has succumbed this morning to the cancer that invaded her body.

Baruch Dayan HaEmet.

Funeral to take place this Motzei Shabbat, at Givat Shaul's Kehillat Yerushalayim cemetery.

Here's what she wanted:

When you think of me, be happy.

When you see me, smile.

I only keep thinking of the Prophet's words:

One day, He will abolish death forever and wipe the tears from all faces.

Its so sad to see someone pass before their time and yet we must obey G-d's will for our own good.

He will be merciful to those of us who remember His deeds and His love for those have suffered dearly for His Name.

Zichrona Livracha - may the memory of our late sister and friend RivkaA be for a blessing and may she find peace in the Garden Of Eden and be sheltered in G-d's wings! Amen.
