I met Miriam when she came to Massachusetts for Shana's nursing school graduation. I could see and feel her love for Shana and Shana's love for her. Sending love to Shana and Jakob and to all of Miriam's friends and relations, wishing you comfort in each other's support and in memories of dear Miriam.

Miriam was a good friend and the personification of a caring, generous and good person. She was Elton's first 'boss' in the early 1950s and we were fortunate to have her in our lives for so many years. Our best wishes to Shana who was a 'daughter' to Miriam and showered her with love and care.
