Hundreds Gather For the Shloshim of Benny Keller

R. Yosef Kanofsky director of YAM [Youth Action Movment] spoke about his relation with Benny as did R. Moshe Feiglin Director of the Aliyah Institute.

Friends put together a booklet with stories of Benny. Click the Extended Article to view it along with more pictures of the Shloshim gathering.

    i did not know benny personally.however from all that ive heard about him he sounds like a very spechal.person far beyond his years,we should all strive to have the ahavas yisrael he had, and take it upon our selves to do something good in memory of him.

    I agree with Boruch Moshe’s comment especially as I was at the shloshim (Benny AH was a friend of a friend of mine). Does anyone know where I can get the booklet? I did not manage to get a copy when I was there. Thanks.

    I’m sorry I couldn’t be there. I really wish I could have. Benny has an amazing neshama, witch is still burning in all our hearts. I only hope I can do half of what he accomplished with the amount of love an energy he put into everything he did. what a tzadik. man you were too cool for this world. We’ll all meet you in the next one. make room for us in heaven. and to all the "chevra" your tears break my heart. SMILE FOR BENNY!!!
