  • Pure and sweet

    it is so pure to see a young, innocent boy speaking heart-to-heart with the Rebbe. His angelic character shines through even at this young age.

    I remember I was always so scared to ask the Rebbe for a Brochah. when i would get to the Rebbe, I would freeze, even as a teenager. This boy was strong and brave, a true Gavriel, even as a young child, b’h.

  • If I only overcame that fear....

    Beautiful! You could see how mekusher he was to the Rebbe and desire to fulfill the Rebbe’s will. Nothing would stand in his way. As a child (even notice most of the kinderelech)one was always had an awe streaking fear to speak to the Rebbe. But here Reb Gavriel, at such a young age, didn’t let that fear overtake such a great opportunity, to get a bracha from our Rebbe. What a z’chus! May the Rebbe’s bracha pass on to his son, may he grow up to be a Chossid, Yira Shamayim, Lamadin!
