A fixture at chabad on ocean avenue he used to prepare the tables for shabbos, make order of everything lekovod shabbos v’yomtov in the shul. He took care of the kiddushim every shabbos and was the shul "candyman" to all the kindelach.
Always a smile, and a joke..forever krechtzing the speech is too long b/c he wants to make kiddush :) or to cut out the meshichist talk LOL ..what a neshoma everyone loved him he had no enemies…..even the hardcore yechiniks loved him!
He checked himself in to the hospital alone and by himself 1 week ago and told no one, typical Abba!, and passed away without a soul knowing.
