Helene, Chanie, Moshe, Larry, Susie and all your families.
I am sending my condolences on Ruthie Teren,
BDE. Chani knows I called her aunt ruthie and we used to speak on the phone numerous times in past. She always listen to me and made me feel so special. Her voice always calmed me. She was so proud of all of you. She was one of the very few ladies that reminded me of my own mom ah. Each one of you have her special middot She was truly an eishes chayil. I will miss her very much. Send all of you a big hug.
May Hashem comfort all of you among all other mourners of Isreal.

I am grateful to Mrs. Teren and family for allowing me to spend many Shabbatot at the Teren home when I was in high school. This allowed me a balshuva to learn and love Shabbas. It sparked my religious journey. Mrs. Teren would talk to me and was so kind when I came for Shabbas. She made me feel comfortable.
