Being best friends with Bernice´s son, Michael, since I was a teenager....we spent many weekends hanging out at their house fully welcomed to do so by his parents. When I was a 21 getting married and a newcomer to the Jewish faith/community, Bernice and Howard hosted a brunch for my husband´s and my families, which was such a lovely gesture. I also attended my first Seder at their home and it was so festive and fun. I have many fond memories of Bernice. She was an amazing woman.
