To  Hirsch Family,
I was saddened to read of Enid’s passing in the Temple Beth El bulletin.  She was a wonderful and warm person who contributed much to the Lancaster community, to the Temple,  and to her family.

Lorin,
I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. I lost my Dad in February and it has been hard learning to live on this planet without him. For the first couple of months I would cry, then smile through the memories, then sob, then rejoice that his suffering is over. Then, repeat it all again. The cycle lengthens, and the crying eases. May the memories and your mom’s sweet love for you blanket you during the tough times. 
Hugs to you.

I was saddened to learn of Enid’s passing when I returned from the Memorial Day weekend.  She was a lovely and gracious lady who was always friendly and kind.  I know she will be missed by all of you.
