Midge a.k.a. Margalit in Jerusalem would always end our phone conversations with, "love you honey!" I am convinced beyond a doubt
that I was not the only recipient of this heartfelt greeting because Midge had a heart of gold. She extended both her heart and home to
any and all who were blessed to have known her. Upon our arrival in West Orange in the late 80's I was introduced to Midge and the Kra family. She and David took us in under their wings as they were apt to do and a true friendship began that has forever changed my life.
For over 20 years we have laughed together and cried together, shared good times and bad, sought counsel from one another and been there for one another whether it be in person, over the phone,or an email. I was overjoyed when she came to Ruhama and Akiva's wedding in Jerusalem this past October. Having her there with Abby meant the world to me. I danced with her in her wheelchair never thinking for a moment that this would be the last time I would see her in person. I knew she was sickly but I believed she was absolutely unstoppable. Hadn't all her trans Atlantic flights to Israel to visit her children and grandchildren prooved that? I was privilledged to talk to her on the phone after the wedding. She was feeling badly and had to hang up but then she called back again after awhile and apologized for having to get off so quickly. I was about to visit her the night I got the terrible news. She will always be a part of me because she keeps visiting me in my dreams. May her memory be blessed.
Love you, honey
