With sadness we inform you of the passing on of Reb Nosson (Bobby) Vogel of London at the age 82.

Reb Nosson was a pillar of the Jewish community in England. He was the founder of the Yeshiva Gedola Lubavitch on Kingsley way in London and was known as a Baal Tzedaka and Baal chesed throughout the world. He devoted his life to strengthening Torah and Yiddishkeit everywhere he had the opportunity and with his special warmth, touched the lives of many people. He merited tremendous kiruv from the Rebbe, spent long hours in yechidus and received special assignments to accomplish on many of his travels. In particular, he exemplified the mitzvah of Ahavas Yisroel and was someone who dearly loved doing a favor for another Jew.
