With profound sadness we inform you of the passing of Rabbi Yisroel (Izzy) Rosenfeld OBM at the age of 68, Reb Yisreol was an ‘Osek Betzorchei Tzibur’, a great Baal Chesed and never turned a person away when asking for help. He was the director of the Crown Heights Jewish Community Council for many years and contributed countless and devoted hours to the community.

He is survived by his wife Mirel, and his children Elimelech (Miami, FL), Tzemach (Loas Angeles, CA), Moshe (Crown Heights), Chani Labkowski (Monsey, NY), Shmuly (Crown Heights), along with his many grandchildren.

The Levaya will take place today, Monday and will be leaving the Shomrei Hadaas Chapel at 1:30pm and will be passing by 770 at around 2:00pm.

Baruch Dayan Hoemes.

Last night, State Senator Eric Adams called a last-minute press conference for TODAY AT 1:00 P.M. in front of the Jewish Children's Museum, 792 Eastern Parkway, to DENOUNCE the vicious recent attacks on our community by violent young criminals. DON'T BE CYNICAL—SHOW UP!

The media will also be there. Let them see a crowd too!

We all say, “Why don't the politicians do anything?” Well, Sen. Adams won't do anything, if we show him we don't care by not showing up at his press conference.

Please! Let's turn out in numbers! Show we care about crime. Let Sen. Adams see that we support his initiative. TAKE A FEW MINUTES OUT OF YOUR DAY—AND BE THERE at 1:00 p.m.
