  • Gedalia - A big Baal Chesed -

    I had the opportunity to know Reb Gedalia
    He was a big baal Chesed in a very hidden way many knocked on his door for help they would always leave with a smile on their face. A big loss for Klal Yisroel , a Gadol B’Dor and a briliant person his Davening makom Kevuah would be in a corner in 770 by the Tanya shiur box so he can concentrate on the Tefilos .
    Global warming – Instability in the weather patterns he would say , a scientist and a Talmud Chacham a true dugma Chai of a Rebbes a Chosoid .Zol Er Zain a gut better for Klal yisroel and Bring Moshiach Now

  • Want to know everything!

    Thank you for your wonderful words about my father.
    I wonder if you would be willing to let my brother interview you so if C”V moshiach is not here as our children, our little Gedaliahs, grow up – at least they can have this documentary.
