במרומי צפת sits the resting place of the one who made my
bris, cut my hair and made me
peyos, leined my
Bar Mitzvah aliya, and who kissed me on
di shteren after I said my
Maamar at my
leChaim/vort. (It was a
maamar ד"ה שיר המעלות הנה מה טוב ומה נעים שבת אחים גם יחד.) I believe these are the first published pictures of the newly erected
Matzeivoh. When I went with my father zg"z to invite him to my wedding -
nisht heint gedacht - he apologized that he could not attend since it took place overseas and he was not feeling well at the time. He also has a very strong connection to my
shver zg"z and his father, z'l, and he was overjoyed to see me join that family. [Needless to say I have much to say about
Hagaon HaRav Reb Menashe Klein, zt"l, but I have yet to find the time to do it properly. There's his connection to
Lubavitch, how he was treated in the general
Olam HaTorah, as well as
Rabbonim, Roshei Yeshivos and
Tzaddikim.]
RMK asked that he be buried there, next to the resting place of
HaRav Amrom Chasida, zt"l, whose
tziyun he restored. His wife, the
Rebbetzin nee'
Frankel, was a descendant of his, as well as the
Beis Shearim, lineage that the
Rov adopted as his own...I hope to find the time to write. It'll have to be done in parts, and even if I do start I hope I'll be able to carry it through.
(P.S. The OFFICIAL הקמת מציבה is Sunday 16
Cheshvan)
