Marcella Kaplan

I knew Marcella when I worked as a volunteer at the Jewish Home Assisted Living where she was a resident. I used to accompany the residents on trips and I would push Marcella around stores in her wheelchair. Since she couldn´t see the items very well from her wheelchair, she asked me to look for them, including very specific types of cosmetics, about which I knew absolutely nothing!! I would do my best, however, and Marcella was extremely grateful to me. I once asked her what she was...

Marcella was a beloved cousin of my father, Harold Komar of blessed memory and my mother Adelaide Komar of blessed memory. I remember walking around with Marcella in Jerusalem on her visit here.
She was a lovely and warm person whom all who knew her, loved her.
