Saturday evening, I was thrust into a significant, unexpected transition. This event tests the byline for this blog: changes, challenges – and it’s all good. How is it all good? I don’t know, however I believe deep in my gut that the good will be revealed.
My husband passed away suddenly, unexpectedly, yet seemingly peacefully on Saturday evening. I am in shock.
I am grateful for the time we were together. I learned many lessons from him. There will be more to share about those lessons and about this period of transition as I move forward.
May the memory of Herschel Avraham be for a blessing.

May Hashem comfort you among the mourners of Zion and may his memory be a blessing.

Sherri,
I’m so sorry to hear about your husband. Let me know if you need anything… I’ve been through this myself (lost my husband “by surprise” in 2001). If you need someone to talk to, let me know…
