(Cleveland Jewish News)
During shiva after the murder of her husband in a terrorist attack on their neighborhood synagogue in Jerusalem Nov. 18, Chaya Levine – formerly Marilyn Markovitz of University Heights – joined the three other women whose husbands had been killed in the attack and sent out an appeal for love and unity between families, communities and all ethnic groups.
“It is so painful, we are all good friends,” Levine, a Hebrew Academy of Cleveland alumna and 1978 graduate of Yavne Academy, told the Cleveland Jewish News after getting up from shiva. “We asked for a Shabbos of unity, to give charity and any acts of kindness people can do.”
