Six years ago, on the 7th of Mar-Cheshvan, the Tzivos Hashem soldier, Levi Piamenta, OBM, passed away. The large number of people who arrived to the Levaya proved above all, to what extent he was loved by Kfar Chabad residents. Levi radiated with warmth and would help everyone. One day he was found to be infected by 'the illness’, but he recovered from it after several months. However, the symptoms returned and he remained ill until his passing.
Wednesday, Reb Avi Piamenta, his father related some interesting anecdotes involving his son. "Several years ago a Bochur, paralyzed in his entire body, lived in Kfar Chabad. His condition was so severe that the only things he could move were his eyes. When Levi saw the Bochur, he became friends with him and found a way to communicate with him. He would sit near him and play with balls. It was amazing. I personally view this as a manifestation of the warmth Levi would impart to every person, even to such a Bochur who could not communicate ordinarily with others. That Bochur was 'Niftar' a few months after Levi".
