Baruch Dayan, the truth teller: In the Ramat Shlomo neighborhood of Jerusalem, the young woman Rivka (Ricky) Feibelson died last night (Tuesday), at the age of 32.

This evening she felt difficulty breathing after suffering from asthma in recent years, and to the dismay of her family and acquaintances, she collapsed at home and passed away.

The deceased was born on the 2nd of Tammuz 5754 to her father, the Gaon Rabbi Eliyahu Meir Feibelson, head of the 'Pitchei Olam' yeshiva in Jerusalem, and to her mother, Mrs. Pnina, daughter of the Gaon Rabbi Yitzhak Wallach zt"l, who passed away in the month of Nisan.

She served as a beloved teacher at the 'Ashira' school in Jerusalem. She also worked as a coordinator for a program to spread Judaism in schools in Jerusalem.

She became famous in the past year for hosting podcasts for women on topics such as Judaism, education, and matchmaking.

She is survived by her parents, brothers and sisters.

Her funeral will take place today in Jerusalem.
