She will be remembered by her many nieces and nephews for her dedication to the extended family and as a devoted daughter-in-law to the late Lena Shapiro.

Elaine & Leon we were sorry to learn of the passing of Elaines mother.May her memory be a blessing and a source of comfort to you at this most difficult time.May you be comforted amongst the mourners of Zion & Jerusalem
Charles, I am very sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. May her memory be for blessing.
I am very sorry to hear of Raye’s passing. My sympathy to Charles and his siblings. We are fourth cousins; I only knew Raye in her last few years, after Charles connected with us, but I am very glad that I got to meet her even then.
Cousin Charles and the entire Lebow family,
Condolences to you all at this sad and difficult time.

To the Lebow Family and to my son Yoni who has lost his Bubbe.
Raye Lebow had been my motherinlaw for thirty years and a ‘mother figure’ for many of those years after the premature death of my own mother of blessed memory. We became ‘special friends'(her words) during the past few years until her death. I was grateful to have been able to say ‘goodbye’ during Purim. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother and those in her circle were blessed to have her live to a very advanced age. May her family be comforted with all the mourners of Zion and Yirushalayim and know no more sorrow.
So very sorry to learn of Raye’s passing. This surely marks the end of an era. There is an abundance of shared family history between Caller/Lebow/Cohen families. Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Sincere condolences. Selma Caller Sacrob & family
