I am grateful to MorseLife and Levin Palace for welcoming me back on Monday to share my grandparents’ Holocaust journey.

The last time I was at MorseLife, I had the privilege of presenting their journey to the residents of Tradition. Returning to continue these important conversations was truly meaningful.

A special thank you to Amy Bernstein for arranging this event and for your warm hospitality.

It was an honor to meet Holocaust survivors, hear their experiences, and engage with so many thoughtful attendees. The questions and reflections shared afterward reinforced the importance of preserving these memories and lessons.

As the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, I consider it both an honor and a privilege, as well as a significant responsibility, to share their journey and help ensure that their voices, truths, and legacy endure for future generations.

So grateful to share my grandparents' Holocaust survivor journey with the community at Delray Medical & Dental & South Florida Behavioral Institute Senior Center on behalf of HOPE for Seniors.

Special thanks to this amazing nonprofit senior center, which provides free services to adults 55+ in our community, to our generous sponsors for their support, and to everyone who attended. After the presentation, we enjoyed connecting with sponsors and guests, followed by a fun raffle—because who doesn't love the chance to win a prize? 🎉

Two moments made the afternoon especially memorable:

✨ Bonnie, a Holocaust survivor, shared part of her incredible story of survival after narrowly escaping death twice during the Holocaust. Today, she speaks in schools to educate future generations. Bonnie, your courage and dedication inspire us all.

✨ And then there was a moment only Hashem could orchestrate. After my presentation, a gentleman quietly asked, “Did your Zadie become a barber?” When I said yes, he became emotional and shared that all his life, he had gotten his haircuts from my grandfather. What are the chances? In Judaism, we believe there are no coincidences—only divine connections.

As the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, it is an honor, privilege, and responsibility to continue sharing their legacy. Together, we combat antisemitism and hatred through education, remembrance, and human connection.

Always Remember. Never Forget.

If your senior center, independent living community, assisted living facility, 55+ community, synagogue, school, or organization would like me to share my grandparents' journey, please reach out. I would be honored to speak with your community.

❤️

Grateful to VERENA at Delray for the opportunity to share my grandparents’ journey—from Holocaust survival to building a life and legacy in America.

A special thank you to Melissa Lopez with My golden friends for organizing such a meaningful event.

No matter the audience size, the impact is always powerful. This time, it was especially moving to have a daughter of Holocaust survivors in attendance—a reminder of why I continue this work.

The heartfelt thanks and encouragement I receive each time mean everything.

Also, thank you to Michele with ABI – Absolute Best Insurance for your ongoing support of seniors and community education. It was incredible to see you connect so personally with attendees—you are truly a trusted resource.

If you’re part of an independent, assisted-living, or 55+ community in Palm Beach County or the Tri-State area, I’d love to connect. And if you’re a business interested in supporting future events, please reach out.

I am deeply grateful to MorseLife for welcoming me and giving me the opportunity to share my grandparents’ journey with residents of the Traditions building.

It is not only an honor and a privilege, but also a responsibility for me, as the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, to share their story—to keep their voices, memories, and truths alive.

I am very much looking forward to returning in July to share with the residents of the MorseLife Palace.

A huge thank you to Amy Bernstein for making this opportunity possible. Amy is truly amazing—passionate, thoughtful, and deeply committed to creating impactful programming. Thank you as well to Chuck for being there and assisting throughout—MorseLife is lucky to have him.

One of the most powerful moments was meeting a Holocaust survivor who lives there. We shared a quiet, private moment—talking, hugging, and crying together—followed by a photo I will always cherish.

As I continue presenting, I keep meeting survivors who deeply relate to my grandparents’ journey and remind me how necessary this education is.

Education remains the most powerful tool we have to combat antisemitism.

If you are a 55+ independent or assisted living community in the Tri-County area, I encourage you to reach out. I would be honored to share this presentation with your residents.

🥑 Awesome- Air Fryer Avocado Fries + Horseradish Mayo. �Crispy, creamy, and a healthier fry alternative!

You’ll need:
�1 ripe avocado • 1 clove garlic • almond flour • extra‑virgin olive oil • kosher salt & pepper • spices of choice (optional)

How to:�Peel and slice the avocado. Mince the garlic. Toss avocado slices with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and spices. Lightly coat in almond flour.
�Air fry at 400°F for 10 minutes, flip, then cook 10 more minutes until golden.

Dip:�Mix mayonnaise, horseradish, salt, and pepper (or any flavors you love).

✅ Why this is better than regular fries:
�• Avocados provide healthy fats and fiber, unlike starchy potatoes�• Air frying uses far less oil than deep frying�• Fewer refined carbs, more nutrients, and still crunchy 😍

Dip, crunch, and enjoy! ✨
�Healthy fries never tasted so good.
