I am a 13-year-old girl from West Orange, NJ. As a commemoration of October 7th, 2023 now on October 7th, 2024 everyone in my school, JKHA, has been assigned a soldier, and Ilay was mine. I have taken the honor to uplift his Nishama, daven, learn Torah, and participate in activities, and the school day, keeping him in mind throughout the day.♡
