The levaya will take place tomorrow from Shomrei Hadas at 9:45, passing by 770 at 10:45.
Shiva is at 692 Lefferts Ave.

I am still shattered by the news.. Chaya Mushka will stay in my mind 4ever!! She was not an ordinary child.. She was such a tzudikus, she would never hurt someones fellings. She learnt me sooo much!! And her parent definetly deserve the credit.. How much chinuch they put into their children. I LOVE YOU!! I MISS YOU!! We should never hear any such tragedy…
There was a fantastic organization that helped every step of the way providing support volunteers to the parents, child and sibling. It is called Hands On for children. They keep a low profile but they do a lot.
5770….

I don’t know who you are and you don’t know who I am. But I can feel just a portion of your pain as I see the picture of your beloved, innocent daughter. Whenever you feel like sinking in pain just imagine your daughter at peace and tranquility up there in heaven. Maybe that’ll make it a bit easier. I’m just a young teenager, and Baruch Hashem I’ve never experienced such a tragedy but I can imagine what you’re going through. I just want to let you know how much we all feel for you and what you’re going through.
we are all bleeding inside from pain

I cannot bear the pain of hearing this news. I know Chanie, the child’s mother, very well and I am just sitting here and sobbing knowing that she has to go through this. That her child had to suffer like that. Chanie, you are not alone. We are crying with you and feeling for you and we are here for you…
Hashem has to soften the tzoros. BD”E.
