Rebbetzin Basya Garelick
Via Giulio Uberti 41
Milano (418) Italy
Blessing and Greeting:
I am in receipt of your letter, and I reiterate my prayerful wishes that you and your husband should bring up your newborn daughter, Chana, together with your other children, to a life of Torah, Chuppah and Good Deeds.
May G-d grant that you should always have good news to report in all matters, both general and personal, materially and spiritually.
Especially as we have now come from the month of Tishrei, the month which is sated with festivals and with a complete variety of deep religious experiences, culminating in a most joyous note, that of Simchas Torah. As explained in our holy sources, the month of Tishrei is a "general" month, the epitome of the whole year, and the source of inspiration and blessing for every day of the year. May G-d grant that it should be so for you, and that all your affairs should be permeated with true joy, the joy of the Torah and Mitzvoth.
With blessing - מזל טוב
M. Schneerson
As described in your letter - the building can be named בית-חנה.1
