Adirondack Northway, NY — It is with great pain and sorrow we report the very untimely passing of Mrs. Shterna Sara Rosen OBM, wife of Rabbi Dovid Rosen, who serves as the Rosh Yeshiva of the Yeshiva Ketana Chabad of Baltimore, and is the daughter of Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Levkifker, one of the heads of the Chabad Yeshiva of Tsfat.
The tragic accident occurred in the northbound lanes of the Adirondack Northway (I-87) at Exit 35. The family was on their way back from spending Shabbos in Montreal, Canada to their home in Baltimore, MD. The mother, Mrs. Rosen passed away from her injuries at the scene of the accident and one of the children were rushed to the hospital suffering from critical injuries while the father, R. Dovid and the two other children didn’t sustain any life threatening injuries.
The New York State Police said that the apparent cause for this terrible accident was the harsh weather conditions, which caused the families car to slip off the roadway.
The Levaya will take place Today, Monday in front of 770 at around 5:15 on its way to Israel for burial.
Readers are requested to please say Tehillim for Malka Freida bas Shterna Sarah, who is in critical condition.
