SHALOM ABRAM - THANK YOU MILA


My father-in-law, Abram, passed away last month after 92 years of life.


Two weeks later my family took Mila his caretaker from Nepal for a day trip to Jerusalem (without me, I still cannot walk a whole day).


With my daughter and granddaughter.


His granddaughter on the right.

Mila was with us for three years. She did her job splendidly, carefully, and with a warm heart. We are very thankful to her and wish her all the best. She will stay in Israel for another period of time and found work again with an elderly patient in the same neighborhood where she lived with my father-in-law.
Kol tuv Mila!

Hej Yael,

als alter Mensch jemanden um sich zu haben, der solche Eigenschaften besitzt, bedeutet Ruhe und Geborgenheit. Das nenne ich auch "in Würde alt werden."
Das ist eine sehr familiäre Geschichte, die wir hier erfahren dürfen.
Danke

Lieben Gruß
Beate

Liebe Yael,
ich hoffe, es geht dir wieder besser.
Dein Schwiegervater hat ein gesegnetes Alter und schaut noch sehr gut aus.
Mila sstraht soviel Wärme und Herzlichkeit aus. Das Foto mit deiner Tochter und Enklin ist wunderschön.
Einen geruhsamen Abend wünscht dir
Irmi

Farewell dear Abram... And thank you Mila for being the splendid soul you are.
Big hugs to you, dear Yael, and I hope you can walk well very soon! :)

92 years of age is not bad going. He can be said to have had a good innings.
And he was looked after well, which makes all the difference.

Still, whenever you lose somebody from your family there is sadness at another chapter closing. I am sorry for your loss.

Take care Yael. Hope you’ll soon get your walking legs back.

It seems that he had a full life, with all that it has to offer. And the luck to have such a lovely caretaker and women in his life!

Hello, Yael! I’m slowly back into blogging. It’s so sad to lose an important loved one, but 92-year-old is a great accomplishment. When he is remembered warmly, the pleasant time with him will be full grown in your heart. Give my condolence to Uri, too.
