Tragedy: Young Father Dies After Mysterious Injury
A young father of 4 who was critically injured under mysterious circumstances has tragically passed away in Melbourne, Australia. Yitzchok (Yitz) Yonasan Zev Rosen OBM was 35 years old.
Last week CrownHeights.info reported that the victim was on vacation with his family at a Mornington Peninsula Country Club, when he was badly injured. Investigators say he was found unconscious on the grounds of the resort around 7:20am, after having fallen and struck his head while walking.
The 35-year-old was found with serious head injuries and suffering hypothermia, after spending the night lying outside, while his family slept in a nearby apartment unaware.
He was airlifted to the Alfred hospital with hypothermia and head injuries where was listed in critical condition until his Petira on Monday.
Levaya details were not immediately known.

When I was on Shlichus to YG in Melbourne as a Bochur I got to know him. We used to learn together (he was then in Yeshiva College); He was clever and one of the nicest guys around.
To his dear wife and children, to Chaim and the rest of his family, we weep for you, and for Yitzy OBM whose life was cut so short. All I can say is that he must have accomplished in these short years what it takes the rest of us a life time.
Yitzy was always and will always be an inspiration to all of us. If the rest of us were like him, perhaps Moshiach would have long been here.
I will Bli Neder take upon myself something extra to do in his Zechus, and in the Zechus of his dear family.
If anyone knows if a fund will be setup to help his young family, please post. I would like to give something.
