I remember Mrs. Gershon so well. I practically grew up around the Gershon family and Mrs. Gerson was always so happy and loved her family. I wish I could be there to show my respect and admiration for such a lovely lady. May God comfort the grieving family among all the mourners in Zion and Jerusalem.

We are very sorry for your loss. Your mother, Mrs. Gershon was a very devoted teacher at Yeshivas Tiferes Tzvi, where our sons were students. We have many pleasant memories of her warmth and concern for her students.
May Hashem comfort you among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem

Sending our heartfelt condolences to Lillian’s wonderful children and grandchildren. Lillian was an intelligent woman with a deep love for her family and her faith. Her reserved personality had a surprisingly quick appreciation for humor each of her children similarly share. May Lillian’s family take comfort in the fact that she is at peace. Her memory will live on in all who knew her.
With love from Cathy Singer, Charlotte Kohn and all of the Staff and Residents at Dobson Plaza

We are so sorry for your loss.
Mrs Gershon was a beloved teacher of all four of our sons in Yeshivas Tiferes Tzvi. She truly cared about her students, and they knew it.
May her memory be for a blessing.

We have warm memories of Mrs Gershon as a first grade teacher at YTT. Years later, I joined the staff of YTT and worked with Mrs Gershon. She was a gifted and dedicated lady who is very much missed. May her memory be for a blessing. The Schnair Family
