Ludmila Brudnaya

Daughter of late Undina (Rutfine) and Michael Zukerman. Beloved mother to Sergey Brudniy of Stoughton, MA. Cherished grandmother of Alisa Jno-Charles of Needham, MA. Devoted great-grandmother of Isabelle, Aurora, and Ethan Jno-Charles of Needham, MA. Beloved sister of Nadya Kuzmina of Germany.

Ludmila was born in Ukraine in 1929. She was a Holocaust survivor, an accomplished engineer, and made, unquestionably, the world’s best chicken pâté. Her one true love, hobby, and interest was her family, to whom she gave all of herself and her talents. Her joy in cooking came from watching her family eat. Her collection of fine china existed solely to pass on as family heirlooms and history. Her biggest time commitment was to calls and video chats with her great-grandchildren. Her vivid stories, lessons, and boundless generosity and kindness have forever changed all the lives she has touched and will forever serve as a memorial of her life on earth.
