The Face of a Hero

Chana Weisberg – Chabad.org
Roi Klein

Roi Klein.

It is a name that until a few days ago held no meaning to me. He was a complete stranger, about whom I had never heard and whom I had never met.

Yet an image of the last seconds of his life won’t leave my mind.

Roi was a son. He was a brother. He was a husband to Sara and a father to three-year-old Gilad and one-year-old Yoav.

LIC ceremony marks revival of traditional Jewish beliefs

Times Ledger

Nachum Wineburg stood on a chair inside the Congregation Sons of Israel synagogue in Astoria Sunday as relatives and friends, one by one, snipped off locks of his long, wavy hair. It was the first time 3-year-old Nachum had ever had his hair cut, in a rare Jewish tradition known as “upshernish,” that represents the beginning of a boy’s formal education.

It was also the first time anyone in the room could remember the rite being performed in Astoria, something Nachum’s father, Rabbi Zev Wineburg, hopes to change. Wineburg, a rabbi in the Chabad-Lubovitch Jewish movement, is trying to lead a revival in traditional Jewish practices in Astoria and Long Island City, where a once-thriving Jewish population has become older and more secular.
