Chief Rabbi of Sudbury, Canada
d. 6 Shevat, 1922 (5682)
The Rav, born in Dubrovna, Belarus a small town along the Dnieper River in 1857, studied in the famed Volozhiner Yeshiva. In 1892, after moving to the United States he settled in New Bern, NC where he served as Rav for two years until relocated to Sudbury. It was under the guise that he was going to a growing Jewish community that he made the move. Upon his arrival it was apparent that at the time that the community size was greatly embellished. Nevertheless the Rav stayed.
