Rav Yosef Zundel decided that he needed a shidduch for his daughter so he said the next bochur that comes from Litta will be the edim. he met Reb Nosson and asked him if he agreed – which he did. Everyone thought Reb Nosson was an am ha’aretz till a few days before the chasuna when they find out he was an einekel of the Shaagas Aryeh.

His Kever is not far from Rav Yaakov Yosef’s, a bit behind it.
