Dear Hope, I was only a little girl when I knew you. I have such happy memories of visiting you. I still know your face in my memory. And I was also so happy when Abba brought you to your life as wife and mother and grandmother. I'm 64 yrs old now. I don't know if you remember me. The little girl across the street from your family home in Kemp Mill. Michele Vaccaro. Richard and I were best friends and still very close and dear friends. My heart is with you now in your loss. So precious these days of loss. So much to feel, so much to embrace. I'm feeling so many things as I sit here in these moments to write to you. My name now is D'vorah Berkowitz and I'm Israeli now and live in Israel. Ariel and I have 7 grandchildren now. I send blessings to you from Jerusalem.
