It is with sadness that we inform you of the passing of Rabbi David Hollander OBM, who was the longtime Rabbi and spiritual leader of the Hebrew Alliance Shul of Brighton Beach.
Rabbi Hollander kept in touch with the Rebbe and partook in many Farbrengen, during his tenure he merited to receive many Brochos and guidance’s from the Rebbe relating to public work.
A few months ago CrownHeights.info published a video of Rabbi Hollander passing before the Rebbe for Sunday dollars in Elul 1991 after the Crown Heights riots where he asked the Rebbe if he should write articles urging Jews to come visit the neighborhood, and the Rebbe responded that he should make sure it would be on the positive side, and bring a positive impact. (The video can be viewed in the Extended Article)
The Levaya will take place today, Tuesday, and will be leaving from the Hebrew Alliance Shul 2915 Brighton 6th Street at 4:30pm and from there will be traveling to the airport to be buried in Israel.

Chabad of Southern Colorado is nearing completion of its beautiful Mikvah. Rabbi Moshe Liberow who has been on Shlichus in the area since 2001, said “There has been a great need of a Mikvah for the locals as well as for the many tourists that visit this region”. The drive to Denvers' Mikvah – which is currently the closest, is close to 130 miles round trip. Thus, this new Mikvah will enable many to start keeping this integral Mitzvah.
