“The tens of thousands who came to the rebbe’s grave site, the hundreds of thousands who asked others to bring their names to the rebbe, and the millions of people whose lives have been deeply impacted by the rebbe’s influence is testament to the ever-increasing mark the rebbe’s soul continues to have around the world,” said Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky, a leader of the Lubavitch movement.
In conjunction with the marking of the yahrzeit, a Chabad Web site, www.chabad.org/293925, is soliciting anecdotal information about Rabbi Schneerson’s life for a history-gathering project.
