Today marks the first yahrzeit of my grandmother, Suri Lichtschein z"l (Babi Yaya).
She survived Auschwitz, lived to 99, and never lost her emunah in Hashem.
My brother Elie & I recorded an episode remembering her last year, & I wanted to republish it.

יהי זכרם ברוך.
On cancer, fatherhood & faith.

Earliest start time for @YUathletics on Friday and a remarkable “TBA” designation, the only one listed for Saturday evening, in respect to Sabbath observance. Major kudos @elliotsteinmetz@YUNews and to the @NCAA@NCAADIII for ensuring this sacred day is honored and respected.
