Roza Soliman Tehrani, age 82, of Santa Monica, California, passed away on Tuesday, May 1, 2018 (16 Iyar 5778, Omer 32). Roza was born June 14, 1935 in Tehran, Iran, to Moshe Soliman Tehrani and Habiba Kesherim.
Roza is survived by her daughters, Edna Jedian, Vida Jedian, Homa Jedian, and Lida Jedian; her sons-in-law, Shahriar Adhami, Bijan Niakan, and extended family; Amir Shohrati, Sirous Eliassi, and extended family; Shahriar Adhami, and extended family; Saeed Youshie, and extended family; her siblings, Jacob Tehrani, Pariz Tehrani, and Akram Hanani; and her grandchildren, Kousha Adhami & Nikayeh Mostofizadeh; Koorosh Adhami & Elnaz Adhami; Ravash Eliassi, Radfar Eliassi, and Arash Eliassi.
Roza dedicated her life to her family and her traditions. She raised four loving daughters, but always hoped for a son; instead she got six grandsons. She always said that G-d gifted me four daughters and eight grandchildren.
Roza married at a young age, and gave birth to her four daughters. Although she did not have a happy marriage, but she spent all of her life taking care of her children and grandchildren. She was a teacher, and greatest grandmother in the world. She was the foundation of the family. Every holiday and event, Shabbat, Yom Kippur, Pesach, and so on, was held at her home.
Her grandson wrote, My grandmother raised us. She washed us, fed us, washed our clothes, and took us to the doctor when we were sick. When she migrated to the U.S., she stayed with us in Austria. She continued to play the role of a grandmother and mother to us. She dedicated her life to raising her children and grandchildren. The world is a darker place without her.
