One of my favorite authors, Ruchoma Shain has passed away at the ripe old age of 98. Her biography of her father is one of a few books that leaves a lasting impression on a person - one that drives a person to become better. She moved with her young husband to Europe-Mir before WWII so that her husband could learn by the great European Talmudists. Her father's Hachnasas Orchim was legendary. T.N.T.B.H.
See Matzav for her life's highlights.
All for the Boss is a fantastic read. Ruchoma also wrote some other books about teaching.
