A true loss to the family.
We knew her from living at the Villa. A very warm and loving friend to all. Her kindness to Sarah O. was a blessing in the recent years for which she is remembered by many.
May she rest in peace.
So sorry for your loss I remember Minnie when she was friendly with my mom Harriett Koslow. Very sweet lady.
Sharon, Steven, Hannah, Dena and Mira,
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I always enjoyed talking to Minna, especially in the mall. She was lucky to have all of you in her life and you all brought her much joy! May her memory be a blessing.
Love, Margi
We loved seeing Minnie at the mall!
May her memory be for a blessing!
Dear Sharon and Family
My sincere condolences to you and your family. Aunt Minnie was one of my favorites of the sisters and I remember going to your home often.

So sorry for your loss. I last saw Minnie at her 90th birthday party, so full of life. She and Mo were so good to my late husband Carl. May fond memories help sustain you at this difficult time.

To cousins Sharon, Stephen, Hannah, Dena, and Mira,
I wish I could find the right words to express what a great loss I know this is to each of you, and of course the sadness for myself as well. Auntie Minnie was such a wonderful person who meant so much to our entire family. Yes may her memory be a blessing.
Dear Sharon and Family,
Sorry for your loss. Minnie was quite the lady. I met her on the 50th Anniversary of Israel. We use to go out once a month for diner with four other ladies. We always had a great time. We also went on a few trips together.
May she Rest In Peace.

My sister, Sue, and I were sorry to read about the loss of your mom. Your mom and dad’s names had recently come up with a newly found cousin and we were all trying to figure out how the Kurtzers and the Waldman’s were related and the mystery was figured out with the help of an old census.
