Sunday, Chof Alef Tammuz was the birthday of R. Meir Itkin which was marked with a lively Farbrengen, which he led, in his home on Eastern Parkway. A prominent fixture at the Farbrengen was the ‘Raineh Mashkeh’ which R. Meir is known to make Kiddush with on Shabbos.

During the Farbrengen R. Meir related memories and stories from his childhood, with his clear voice and clear memory. We wish R. Meir many more Healthy and Happy Years!
