A True Woman of Valor

My mother, Rivka Leah Komorovski gave birth to me on the deck of a relocation ship, she then was sent back to undergo treatment for TB, she left me with her sister in the US. Later she went on to Israel where she ran an orphanage for displaced children until her death. She gave me a life beyond belief by being selfless and loving in a way most people never could. She lives on in blessed memory.
