Rabbi Yehuda Leib Posner, 97, Pioneer of Chabad Expansion
The Brooklyn apartment of Rabbi Yehuda Leib (Leibel) Posner was a frequent visiting spot for his dozens of children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, many of whom serve as Chabad emissaries in places as close as New Haven, Conn., and as distant as Kyiv, Ukraine. Posner passed away on Tuesday morning, 19 Tammuz (July 15), at his home in Crown Heights, Brooklyn.
