On the recordNovember 15, 2018
today I wish to remember Rose Mallinger. Rose was 1 of the 11 people who was violently killed at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh's Squirrel Hill neighborhood. Maya Angelou once said, ``My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.'' By all accounts, Rose Mallinger lived that life. Ninety-seven when she died last month, everyone described Rose as full of life and destined to live to be at least 100 years old. The Tree of Life was the center of her days, and she had been a member of the congregation for over 60 years. Rose Mallinger was an inspiration to all who met her, and that grace, that vivaciousness of spirit, will live on in the lives she touched. ____________________
