    Why did they have to start the three weeks by sending out three pashkvilen full of hate? Now we are paying the price. This is the second victim since the three weeks started!

    And to you writers and disseminators of these hateful pashkvilen, how can you live with yourself?

    We scream ad mosai to hashem? We scream ad mosai to the perpetuators of hate, sinas chinom, in a time when we are told that we need ahavas chinom they have nothing better to do but spread sinas chinom.

    Then we cry ad mosai?

    this is so sad–i will miss him dearly. . . we want moshiach now!

  • Ad Mosai

    Why Hashem??! AD MOSAI! We had enough suffering, we cannot bear it anymore. Take us out of this miserable nightmare-galus. We need you and we need to understand you! AD MOSAI! HOW MUCH LONGER CAN WE SURVIVE THIS GALUS! SAVE YOUR PEOPLE WHO ARE CRYING OUT TO you TO SAVE US!! ENOUGH OF THESE HORRIBLE TRADGETIES!! MOSHIACH NOW!
    ~My fellow brothers and sisters we must increase in the mitzva of ahavas yisroel. To love every person with ahavas chinom. and this will surely bring moshiach!

    May we have Moshiach Now!, where there will be an end to all this pain and loss.

    Ad Mosai?!

    Baruch Dayan Ha’emes.

    I had many beautiful Shabbos meals at your home, which still inspire me today. Rabbi Deitsch was one of my main role models for how a Chassidishe Tatte behaves.

    Hamakom Yenakem Eschem Besoch Shaar Aveilei Tzion ViYerushalayim.

    You should know of no more pain, and may the tears be wiped from your eyes with the speedy fulfillment of Vehikitzu Veranenu Shochnei Afar vehu besocham.

    Oy, terrible news.

    Gavriel Gopin is already sitting shiva for his mother, now his wife Tziviah will be sitting for her brother. This is terrible.

    We need moshiach already!

  • Friend

    I have eaten in his house many times. And can honestly say that he was a true Tziur of a Chassidsher Baal Habos, and a Chassidishe father. The beautiful Chassidisher Avir which he led his Shabbos table, his love for Nigunim and his love for Chassidus effected and inspired everyone at his Shabbos table. For me he was an inspiration to look up to and an encouragment for how a Chossid can be.

    Will be sorely missed.

    May we be Zoiche to the Hisgalus of Moshiach Tzifkeinu Bekorov Mamash

    This is terrible. Ad Mosai?!?!

    Mendy, Levi and Chezky, and the rest of the family – may you soon be reunited with your father…vehekitzu…vehu besoicham…as we all greet MOSHIACH NOW!

    A Refuah Sheleima to his brother Yosef ben Mirel.
    ———————————————————
    Isn’t his name Yosef Yitzchak? Anyway, enough tragedies for that special family, which has done only good for Yidden. I forgot that their brother in law is Mrs Gopin AH’s son. AD MOSAI!?!?

  • me

    i sit here ..in pain ..my heart has no rest ..as it is soaked with tears…or perhapps swimming in a pool of teas…i canot accept that ”zalman”is no longer withus …for zalman was always with everyone ..no matter what distance …i speak not only for myself ..im sure there r many who feel the same way ..
    i knew zalman all my life ..andi only have fond memories of him..
    seeing zaman ..was looking at hundreds of years of ‘durgeeveigte chassidim” which he personified..to the optimun..
    zalman was ..from the few who we cn categorize a ”chossid”
    zalman didn’t have ”ahavas yisroel” he was ahavas yisroel..
    ”tzu uishelfen a tzvaitun ‘ was not a subject ..it was his essence ..
    his ”emes” was unparalleled.”..vos mir darfen horeven in chassidus” to him was natural ..born that way .. everytime isaw him …i felt a certain warmth …”a varimkeit”
    zalman was more then a friend ..he was a concerned ”ear” who shared ones sorrow
    as he rejoiced with ones simcha ..i lack in speech what my thoughts r ..i cant begin to express it for they r numerous…
    i recall meeting zalman in 770 a few yrs ago …i was with one of my sons sheyichye….who was about 9 yrs old ..at thath time…
    as we were returning home ..my son asked me ”tati who was that man you kissed in 770?
    i thought for a second ..and said ”that my dear child ” iz dem rebbins chassid”
    i guess that is the highest level one can achieve ..
