I was in a psychology class with Aliza this past summer. We saw one another almost every day for about a month and we were put into the same group to work on a final project together. I was so happy to be put into Aliza's group. She always greeted me a smile and a kind word. She was so warm, and easy to talk to. Aliza would talk about her daughter often. Aliza's love for Chani and her joy in being a mother to Chani were so apparent through the way she spoke, even when she was just telling me about Chani's nap schedule :). Taking care of Chani was her absolute priority, it was plain to see in the short time I spent with her.
May her neshama have an aliyah.

Memories of Aliza ~ Introduction
The purpose of this blog is to collect memories people have of Aliza (Nat) Shull, a'h, in order that those memories can be saved and later transmitted to Chani so she can have an understanding of her mother and her mother's life - how she lived, who her friends and family were, how she acted, how she would want Chani to see her and to live her own life.
At shiva, someone asked Gabi if they had had the opportunity to record memories for Chani from Aliza, and he noted that while Aliza had talked about a month earlier about writing letters to Chani, she hadn't been able to do so. While there are wonderful pictures from her graduation party and Chani's 3rd birthday party, the letters were never written. Instead, he asks that we all help write to Chani everything we can remember about Aliza and her life while it is still fresh in our minds so Chani can read it when she is older, so she can understand and appreciate her incredible mother, Aliza Rachel bas Chaim Tzvi & Liba Yenta (Nat) Shull.
He also asks that everyone send in pictures, videos, letters, messages, memories, words of chizuk... anything. It will all be kept, it will all be appreciated, and it will all be beautiful for Chani to have.
Please either comment or e-mail the memories and pictures to alizamemories@gmail.com. (Please note specifically if something should remain private and not be posted to the blog.)
Thank you so much!
