Episode at the Shiva for the Rebbeitzen
As today is Chof Beis Shvat, this following story was submitted to Crownheights.info for publication.
My mother had been living in Eretz Yisroel but was in the U.S. when the Rebbeitzen was nifteres.
My mother and I had been waiting in what was a line of hundreds perhaps thousands of people along President Street. We had been waiting for about 20 minutes or so when Rabbi Klein had spotter us and insisted that we go to the front of line in the Rebbe’s house.
When we were by the Rebbe and the Rebbe spotted my mother he got up and asked if my mother would follow him to a room (perhaps the kitchen) on the main floor. All in the line who had seen this were sort of shocked as to what was going on and who was this woman??
The Rebbe and my mother returned after about 10-15 minutes.
I asked my mother what the Rebbe said to her. My mother replied that the Rebbe wanted to know when the last time she and the Rebbeitzen had spoken and the nature of their conversation.
My mother and the Rebbeitzen were as close as sisters and they spoke a few times a week even when my mother was in Eretz Yisroel.
Quite extraordinary.
