Condolences

Nira was a great teacher & did so much good for our Squirrel Hill community. I will have fond memories of her. She was always sweet & kind. I am sorry for your profound loss & offer my condolences to your family. Sincerely, Julie Harris

I am very saddened to here of Nira's passing. She was my boss at AJL for many years and one of the kindest ladies I have ever had the pleasure to have known. I have such nice memories working with her. She loved her students. She always brought me apples back from the farmers market that is something I thought of that makes me smile she had a kind heart.
