I wish I had known Miryom better, but our acquaintance was only as the wife of my dear friend, Rabbi Kass. I believe that in the highest firmament of our memory we preserve those whom we love but see no longer, as our silent guides and companions through life. In that sense and for those who knew her and loved her, she lives on.
