We’re better together. Let’s be mekabel something as a town. Something small that is doable. Together we can bring mashiach BezH
I will bli Neder be more careful with the way I drive l’ilui nishmas this young girl. May her family have a Nechama. Umacha Hashem Dimah Mei Al Kol Ponim.
My heart is broken!!
It’s a real tragedy!
Keep posted regarding the Levaya
Toms River is Lakewood when a tragedy like this happens. I live in Monsey and having a nine year old girl myself I cried from this post. I’m not saying the title of the post should be changed, it just made me feel that when a tragedy like this happens, when a young innocent pure nishama is snatched away from us in a moments time like this, we must all feel the pain. Toms river, Lakewood, Klal Yisroel.
I will bli neder not text while the car is driving leiylu nishmasah. Hashem should be menachem the family and may klal yisroel not know of any more tzaros!!!!
Bde! ????????????????
Hows the driver? Did he get badly injured by the impact?
may her neshama have an aliya.
This is sad and tragic ending no matter who this happens too. I pray she was wearing a seat belt as I see so many children in vehicles that DO NOT wear a seat belt. Prayers for the family!
Baruch Dayan Ha’emes. I am mekabel to not post things on my WhatsApp status that are not 100% Tznius (such as news clips, jokes etc. which often are less than 100% kosher), so not to be machshil others in seeing things they shouldn’t see.
That is an amazing Kaballah!
BD”E. The picture of the school knapsack is beyond painful to look at.
This is obviously a Gezeira Min Hashamayim. The mother apparently didn’t notice the stop sign at the intersection until the last moment, but could have driven straight between the two trees on the other side. Instead, the van hit the tree on the right head on. Also all occupants were seat belted.
No words. Only tears.
May Hashem send the family a Nechama commensurate with the Tsa’ar they’re going through right now.
BD”E NO WORDS
Would you know of telephone number to call in for levaya?
Please list the other names for Tehillim.
BD”E
Is there a phone number to call in for levaya?
I will also bli neder work on not texting and driving. I will try to have in mind the Mitzvah of Shemiras Haguf to make this a bigger Mitzvah.
“I will not text while driving leiluy mishmash”
If you text while driving (or even read a text while driving) you are a murderer!!
The pasuk for the name Leah is :L’Hashem hayeshuah al amcha birchasecha selah” May the name of Leah always be alive and may the family see the yeshuah of Hashem and feel his berachah always.
