After a courageous fight agianst that terrible illness, Nehama is at last
resting in peace. She was a warrior all her life, with passion and
determination to achieve her goals and an endearing character, going with
her generous nature. I have always admired her relentless work with
serpuliforms and liked her contributions for their value in our field.
I will miss her enormously.
