This week we celebrated the 110th birthday of dear Mrs. Tzila Cohen in the geriatric wing!

Here are some fascinating facts about Tzila:

  • She was born in 1914 in the town of Krasnik, Poland. At the age of 21, she came to Tel Aviv as a young pioneer.
  • In 1958, she participated in the exciting ceremony of laying the cornerstone for the Kiryat Sanz neighbourhood in Netanya—an important milestone in the city’s history.
  • Until the age of 90, she walked every morning from the Sharon Mall area to the sea in Netanya, and at 102, she was living alone with almost no assistance!
  • Tzila is part of the founding generation of the city of Netanya. She helped build the city with hard work and great faith.
  • She had the privilege of raising two sons—Ya’akov (80) and Beni (76)—who are joined by 5 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren.

 

We join in congratulating dear Tzila and wish her continued health.

During the celebration, we surprised Tzila with a heartfelt greeting from the President of the country, who wished her health, happiness, and wisdom. He added that “an old man is a rabbi who has gained wisdom,” and there’s no doubt that Tzila, with her remarkable life experience, is a wise and inspiring figure who has contributed much more than years to her community.

We join in congratulating dear Tzila and wish her continued health, joy from her family, and a vibrant, happy life!
