  3. I am more interested in the women . One rarely sees a frum women even rebbetzin dressed so plainly and zeniusdik these days.
    I know the Skulener rebbe lived in CH for many years , how did the Anash relate to him and why did he relocate to BP ?

  6. I'm sorry anonymous, you must have misunderstood me. I was praising her, that she looks like a simple, Tzniusdike woman, not an elaborate woman, like some other rebbetzins.

    I'm sorry you misunderstood.

  7. According to Rav Krohn's book "Reflections of the Maggid", the Rebbe left Romania in 1959 with the help of Harry Goodman, President of British Agudas Yisroel and Dr Yaakov Griffel (?) and "other activists". He lived in Belgium for a short time then came to the US, living Crown Heights. See pgs 104-110
