She truly was an unbelievable woman. Spry and active in her aged years, collecting for the poorest families of Yerushalayim. Her entire dira was filled with “chicken” objects; chicken light switch covers, chicken chochkas, etc. When she spoke to Bais YAakov girls, she had a large plastic chicken container that she accepted donations in. When we gave her money, she slid out her ledger book from under her dining room table tablecloth, carefully wrote in our names and how much we gave and then carefully slid it back in under the tablecloth and then insisted that we accept netilas yadaim hand towels as a token of thanks. Her story is amazing and worth listening to or reading. Her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren are as precious as the most precious stones of Yerushalayim. She will be missed by many and she truly was one of a kind.

Wow that is incredible.
Mrs. Clara Hammer is someone to emulate and look up to.
She and not celebrities, should be the heros who get the accolades and the ones that children should be taught to want to be like.
