Jaroslawa Lewicka, the last Righteous Among the Nations living in Israel, died at age 91, and dozens attended her funeral. Haifa's mayor vowed to preserve her memory. Lewicka was born in Poland and as a young girl helped smuggle food to Jews during the Holocaust. Her death marks the loss of one of the last living witnesses to such rescue efforts in Israel.
