It is with broken hearts that we share the devastating loss of our dear sister in-law Dina Goldstein z”l, a beloved 43-year-old Almunah a mother, friend, and cherished member of the community whose life tragically ended the 3rd day Chol Hamoid.

Dina was one of those rare souls whose warmth and kindness left a lasting impression on everyone she encountered. Whether you were a close friend, or someone she had just met, Dina made you feel seen, valued, and cared for. Her sense of humor, generous heart, and authenticity brought light into every room.

Dina survives by her only son Aryah Avrohom Chaim that is now a Yosom from both parents. His Father R Aryah goldstein z”l (that he is named after passed away 2 months before he was born). Dina raised him all these years alone in Colombus Ohio, making sure he got the best education and not settling for anything less than the best.

He was her whole life. After he graduated from Yeshiva in Colombus he went to Yeshiva Oraysa in Yerushalyim where he shteiged away there and got the best grades. He continues to learn at R Yitschok Elconon Yishiva University where he is also working on graduating as a PA.

In the final 2 years of her life, Dina was already facing serious challenges. She underwent major medical issues with a couple of surgeries. She was laid off from work. The surgery left her hand immobile and in significant pain, making day-to-day life incredibly difficult.

Now, Areah is navigating the unimaginable: mourning his mother’s death and try to navigate for his future all alone, with no father mother or even siblings, just his community and extended family.

This fund has been created to help ease the financial burden on Areah. Donations will go to help him continue with his learning and studies so he will be able to stand on his 2 feet when he leaves yeshiva, and IY”H also pay for his wedding expense in the future.

If you knew Dina, you know how deeply she cared for others. Let's show up for only son in the same loving way she showed up for so many.

Thank you for your support, your prayers, and your kindness during this incredibly painful time.
