Chava
Dear Chava. Everyday I think of you, and pray for you that Hashem should give you strength to carry on, and for Him to bring us Mashiach so that you can be reunited with your family ...
May Hashem give you strength to celebrate Pesach with your daughter with Simcha. My thought will be with you over the Chag. bli neder, I will try to take on a mitzvah in honour of your family. You are an inspiration to us all.

Hashem yinakem domom Eva, may you find some peace in your pain. All of "klal yisrael" (Israel) cannot stop thinking about u and your daughter. I will take to heart what u said and think of something to do "leelo nishmas" (in tribute to) your husband and children, maybe never to forget to say shema with my son like u said. lets all daven for the geulah and the end of all this pain for klal yisrael and the "shechina."

Eva you are amazing a true aishet chayil
Eva ever since your family story was in the news I haven't stopped thinking about you, how you are doing & feeling, and what I could do for you in your beautiful loved ones names.
Never did I think you would be more of a source of strength to me than I to you.
Eva you are truly an aishet chayil and my hero!
Please don't stop talking and encouraging.
You are such a beautiful strong role model to Jewish woman everywhere.
May we all merit the coming of moshaich NOW!

The Tragedy In Tolouse I watched this video and it simply breaks my heart. I most admit, that it also makes me very angry. I ask Hashem to forgive me. I do not want to feel any anger nor hate. Because that is not my personality. But when I think what this evil in the world have done to our Jewish people... I must pray, pray to surrender what could become inside of me for the pain. Reply
Dear Rebbitsin Sandler Please know that I am in process of placing a Double Brass Yartzeit plaque on the Memorial in Temple Israel of the Poconos, Stroudsburg Pennsylvania USA in honor of Yontaton, Gavriel, Aryeh and Myriam.
I was deeply moved by their loss and your words. I know you are in Israel and I would like to forward a photo of the plaque to you. I know it will be difficult to get your adress but I will try. Perhaps I can send it to a bank or government office to be forwarded to you. Please let me know a safe place to send the photo or give me an email address that I may attach it to an email and send it that way. Thank you and G-d Bless you and your daughter. My deepest condolences at your tragic loss.
