I join the Khal Adas Chassidim worldwide in mourning the loss of your dear husband, father and brother. Indeed this is a great loss to you. However this is really a great loss to each and every one of us Chassidim. Not only because of the impact and the special position he had in Tzeirei Agudas Chabad enabling Hafotzas Hamayanos in Eretz Yisroel, which is a top priority by the Rebbe and therefore is a top priority by every single Chassid, but also because of the unique, special, different, and extraordinary Chassidishe traits that Yossi possessed.

2. The Rebbe asks a question on this:
The basic point of these verses is that every Jew will return to Hashem (G-d) because of the things which will happen to them. If so, why does the Torah include the word, “the blessing”, into this equation? Isn’t the person’s Teshuvah (repentance) solely because of his broken heart which was an effect of “the curse” which befell him?
CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn — Now that nearly every museum is also a children’s museum — now that nearly every museum has programs that strive to lure the young — what do we seek from a museum that really is a children’s museum?
