About Gitel Tova, Katharine Schlesinger

Her son Hagaon Hakodosh Rebbe Akiva Yosef Schlesinger writes: Shalos U'tshuvos Akiva Yosef (printed Yerushalayim 5,769 - 2009) Chelek Yoreh Deah pages 363-364 Siman #169 - "Concerning Imi Moirosi - my mother my teacher Moras Gitel bas Chana hk"m who went up in Heaven on the 12th of Nissan after great preparations i.e.; with prayers, blessings, tochacha that Sh'Hifli Lasos - she planned and accomplished in a wonderous manner..... U'mi Zoche L'aliyah K'zos - Who merits to pass on in such a sublime manner?! Mamash "Bei Hey'lula" - In a state of Supernal Ecstasy?! While over here we were in the midst of a childs wedding in the very same time she was preparing to depart Vatischak L'yom Achron. All was done B'siddur Nifla in an amazingly organized way. She instructed where and when to be buried. A messenger was sent to inform me but B'derech Peleh - in a miraculous manner the messenger was delayed and distracted. He reached here the very hour that we finished the week of Sheva Brochos festivities! The Tzaddikim are greater when they pass on....in order not to disturb the Chosson and Kallah...Eim Habanim S'meicha - the Mother will be bound up with Heavenly Bliss for all Eternity. Amein Kein Yehi Rotzon."

Note: In another place (see document) he mentioned the yahrtzeit as 11 nisan.
