in her memory…

Below is the Eulogy Phil & Alan wrote for their mom.

We would like to thank all of our friends and family for joining us this afternoon to honor the life of our mother Carolyn. It was our mother's wish to remain in her home after her condition worsened. This could not have been possible without the generous support, guidance and uplifting prayers that so many of our friends and relatives gave to my mother, brother and I. A special thanks is in order to the Gans, Green, Isner, Lang, Levinson, Krieger and Weiss Families for their material and moral support. She was blessed with loving and compassionate nurses and nurse's aids including Dona, Judy, Tina and Bonnie. Her struggle was a lesson in faith, courage, and perseverance. She was never one to complain about her fate, on the contrary her answer to the extreme suffering that she endured was an unshakeable will, a remarkably positive attitude and a great sense of humor. If you asked her how she was feeling, she'd respond with something like: I feel great! I think I'm going to go out dancing tonight.

Rabbi Kilimnik visited my mother and prayed with us shortly before her passing. One idea that stands out in my mind as a result of a discussion we had is this: There is no answer to the question: Why do good people have to suffer? Perhaps the better question is how did they suffer? In my mother's case it was quite gracefully.

My mother was a voracious reader and an avid sports fan. It was not uncommon for she and my brother to watch two or three games at once. She loved to watch all sports especially baseball. She knew many of the players by name and their stats as well. She volunteered at the Jewish Home for more than ten years.

She adored her grandchildren Danny, Joey, and David. She loved all her nephews and nieces especially Patty Zeiner who was like the daughter she never had and she looked forward to the weekly Sunday calls from her nephew Jamie Green. She ended every phone call with I love you. My brother Alan was the apple of her eye and he certainly earned that distinction. In caring for her the way that he did he became a model of genuine sacrifice and charity. We love you mom! You're with Jankil now! We will always remember you
