Boruch Dayan Hoemes: R’ Mordechai Goldin, 59, OBM

With great sadness, shock and deep pain we inform you of the untimly passing of Meir Mordechai Halevi ben Tzvi Hirsh Goldin, at the age of 59.

Mordechai was known as the ‘always smiling’ bus driver for Lubavitcher Yeshiva, ferrying children to school every morning.

He is survived by his wife Penina and their children Zev, Miriam, Pinchas, Moshe, Faigy, and Tova.

He is also survived by his brother R. Eliyahu Goldin (Crown Heights).

The Levaya will take place tomorrow, Friday, at 10:00am by Shomrei Hadas and passing by 770 at around 10:45am.

    Remembering the days my kids came off the bus chanting “Mordechai Hatzadik, Mordechai Hatzadik” We will always remember your smile!

  • No words to say

    He always picked up the children with a smile. He never would accept any money i.e. A Chanukah token gift or any other type of gift. He would always refuse it saying I only want your card and message and countless times give back the money and keep the card.

    Hashem picks the good ones.

    BDE. So sorry for your loss and our loss as his neighbors and friends. Always with a smile and a spring in his step, a gold heart and an open house welcoming thousands to his table and home. A truly special neshama and Chassid. We will all miss him. May Hashem comfort the Goldin family!
