Remembering Helen Friedman, זיכרונה לברכה,who sadly passed away at the age of 98 last week. I can see her smiling face as she greeted me and feel her warm embrace as she hugged me in Temple. I remember how she was the perfect "listener", a grandmother-like figure, whom I recruited to volunteer to "Listen to the Children" in the Livingston schools. Her warm, caring personality, her background as an English teacher from the Bronx made her perfectly suited to the needs of the children lucky enough to have had her as their "Listener". So dedicated was she to giving of herself to the youth. Her friend, Marty, often drove her to Harrison School, or to the #77 bus stop by the JCC, which took her back to NYC where she volunteered as an English tutor. She and her free-flowing poetry will be greatly missed.

Celebrate the life of Helen Friedman, leave a kind word or memory and get funeral service information care of Bernheim-Apter-Kreitzman Suburban Funeral Chapel.
