She left behind three sons and two daughters, who live in Manchester and London, and dozens of grandchildren and great-grandchildren who follow in her footsteps. One of her daughters is married to the rabbi Yosef Binyamin Wasner, Av Beit Din of Satmar London.

On Holy Saturday, she collapsed after suffering a stroke and was hospitalized.

Her grandchildren from abroad, who are staying in Israel and celebrating Yom Tov, the second day of the year, did not travel to the funeral, which went to the Mount of Olives, where she was buried.

Her grandchildren say that her prayers were in vain, and that she remembered the names of all her descendants in order to pray for them all.
