More than 1,000 mourners paid their respects Friday to the oldest victim of last week’s synagogue shooting, Rose Malinger, a great-grandmother beloved for her wit and humor.

“She was 97, but she wasn’t done yet,” said Rabbi Jeffrey Myers, describing an animated woman who lifted weights, clipped coupons and aced word searches — routinely outrunning people decades younger.

Every Saturday at services at the Tree of Life synagogue — where an anti-Semitic gunman fatally shot 11 worshippers last week — Malinger would read the prayer for peace, the rabbi said.

“We just can’t understand how a 97-year-old woman who leads the prayer to peace could meet such a violent end,” he said.

Malinger’s daughter, Andrea, 61, nearly lost her own life trying to protect her mother; she was brought to the funeral from the hospital in a wheelchair by ambulance, returning there later.

“I don’t know how she’s going to live like that, with the memories,” said family friend, Chana Brody, 60.

Speaking at the final funeral, at Rodef Shalom in Pittsburgh, Myers said he’ll offer the task of reading the peace prayer to Andrea “when she’s ready.”
