Rabbi Chaskel Besser, Revitalizing Force of Polish Jewry, Passes Away

Known for a disarming smile and a dignified love of all people, Rabbi Chaskel Besser, who worked to spur a revival of Jewish life in his native Poland, passed away this week at the age of 87. Having made it out of Europe shortly before World War II, he eventually settled in the United States, where he maintained close contact with heads of state, as well as the “regular people” who, despite having never met, regularly called him for advice.
