Yes YOHUDAH, may she live for many more years in good health. You should write her surname with a capital ie Kozak and more importantly, it is “shetichya” as she is a lady.
Evelyn kozak, sheyichya, is my bubby TOO, may she live in good health for 120
When you reach that age wishing her to live till 120 is almost a curse! How about 150?
