Shalom Bayis

After the passing of Rebbetzin Bascha Scheinberg a"h at the age of 96, Hamodia published an interview with Rebbetzin Altusky, her oldest daughter.
Married to Harav Pinchas Scheinberg for 80 years, Rebbetzin Scheinberg and her husband's marital harmony was clearly demonstrated to the immediate family. Rebbetzin Altusky related that both her parents slept with a hot water bottle.
My mother always nudged me to check on my father's bottle, while my father would say, "First check Mama's."
Rebbetzin Altusky further adds, "they lived for each other. Do you know what it means - married 80 years and not a single fight.
She also attributes the remarkable atmosphere in the home to the amazing shalom bayis her parents had.
May we offer the same kind of atmosphere to our children by focusing on giving to our spouses and living for one another.
