Reply To: Something that happened at the levaya

cuteness: I would have answered you a while ago but for some reason, I couldn’t sign in. I don’t know if it was a problem with my computer or the website.

Anyway here are a few things I heard about her- She was always doing for others. The word “no” was not in her vocabulary. Ask her for a favor and it’s done – many times you didn’t even have to ask her.

There is couple who is working at the camp where the Shulmans are, who have a disabled child and needed someone to take care of the child so they could work. They approached Ayala and told her not to feel badly if she has to say no because it’s a hard job. They proceeded to tell her everything that would have to be done to take care of their child. Her answer- “of course I’ll do it”. She started working for them, I believe on Wednesday. The parents were so thrilled with her.The mother of the child approached Mrs. Shulman and told her those were the best 5 hours of their lives.

But she only got to work for them one day. Then tragedy struck.

So so sad…..

If I remember any of the other stories, I will IY”H post them later.

I can also tell you that the parents and the whole family are amazing people. I remember the Shulman girls (not the boys so much because they were on the men’s side of shul) when they were little. We used to daven in the same shul until we moved to a diff neighborhood.
