YWN regrets to inform you about the Petira of Mrs Brana Strenger A”H, mother of Mrs. Rachele Folger and Dr. Fishel Strenger, to take place today (Monday evening) at 6:30 in Shomrei Hachomos on Fort Hamilton Parkway in  Boro Park. This remarkable, courageous woman has been credited with saving so many women in the horrors of Concentration Camps by her herculean efforts and mesiras nefesh.

She was the daughter of Rav Yom Tov Shaul Heller, who was a prominent talmid chochom, and a descendant of the Tosfos YomTov.

She was 90 years old.
