Episode 48: A Garden for Rose Lubin

Elisheva Rose Ida Lubin Z"L, granddaughter of Nathan and Alla Lubin, grew up with a fierce passion for Israel ever since she visited at the age of 5 with her grandfather. As she grew up, she knew it was her mission to make Aliyah and serve in Israel Defense Force as a Lone Soldier. Following the events of October 7, 2023, Rose died fighting for Israel's peace. To honor her memory and all Lone Soldiers, past and future, the Lubin family has created The Lone Solider Garden on Bornblum's campus. After a stirring dedication ceremony (which you can watch here) where Rose's cousins spoke and Fourth through Eighth Grade students planted ceramic poppies they made in the Lone Solider Garden, Dr. Weiss sat down with Nathan and Alla Lubin to speak with them about Rose's life as a proud Lone Soldier, why Nathan has been saying Kaddish for Rose every morning for the last year at minyan, how Alla has become close with Rose's friends, Rose's vision of the future, and the significance of memorializing her life with a Lone Solider Garden.
