I will mourn the loss of my mother for the remainder of my days. If not for her effortless work for mental health and social justice, perhaps I would not have become a social worker.

Miriam and Joel,
We're so sorry for the loss of your mother. Both she and you dad were very special people in our lives. I was consecrated at the Park Avenue Temple Israel and remember when your parents moved to Omaha.
Joel, I remember you and Naomi from Temple's Couples Club.
