When Rabbi Mendel Wilmovsky was growing up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn—worldwide home of Chabad Lubavitch, a Chasidic movement of Orthodox Judaism—he never imagined working in Utah, the state that’s the worldwide home of another religious movement, and at a ski resort, no less. Nevertheless, since December, Wilmovsky and Rabbi Yosef Kirszenberg have been overseeing Bistro at Canyons in Park City, the first kosher restaurant in America housed at a ski resort.
With sadness we inform you of the passing of R’ Yizchok Yosef Lew of Brooklyn. He is survived by his several brothers and sisters, among them Rabbi Shmuel Lew of London, and Mrs. Mindy Feller of Minnesota. Shiva information will be provided when it becomes available.
