  Was he a Rebbe? I know his father was, do you have the photo of his father’s Matzieve?

  He wrote a sefer “Bemoado” in honor of his parents 50th wedding anniversary. It is a collection of many of his d’roshos.

  The father’s Matzeivah is on this website under Rebbe Mordechai Chodorov.

  I still dont think that he called himself a rebbe, his Matzieve supports my theory, did he have a shul at all?

  Miller:
  I knew Rebbe Menachem Dovid Chodorov and he was a Rebbe if there ever was one. The Rebbes midos and character are indescribable. Sadly, the Rebbe spent his last years in the Fort Tryon Nursing Home in Washington Heights where he was soon forgotten.

  Grand Rebbe ,

  I have a copy of Netzach Shebinetzach, a book put out several years ago by the Tolner rebbe of israel’s grandson. there is an entry for both Tolner-Viznitzer rebbes but no info on later generations.

  Did R. Menachem Dovid have any children? Do you know of any grandchildren? I have a website about the Tolner rebbes (http://tolnerrebbes.blogspot.com/). Do you have any info about him that I can add to the site?

  He had children but I don’t know how “frum” or where they are today. I once heard a story that the children sold his Rabbeinu Tam Tefillin which were attributed to have once belonged to the holy Rebbe, Rebbe Zushia of Anapoli.

  The best person to ask is Yitz Twersky of Queens, he is extremely knowledgeable in Chernobyler yichus.

  He has a son somewhere in New Jersey (I frogot where), I met him once and he told me that while his father was sick in the hospital all the valuables of his father’s home – which was always open to everyone – were taken by people, and that’s how nothing of his Yerisha was left.

  BBZ,
  How did he son look, was he Frum/Religous? (I know its a relative term, but trying to get the sense)

  I saw him on Shabbos he came along with Yitz Twersky to celebrate his son Mordchei Yisroels Bar Mitzva. He was observant came to Shul and participated in all services, it didn’t seem to be strange to him. He’s retired from the telephone company.

  Wasn’t he related somehow to Reb Mendele fron Vishive, the son of the Ahavas Yisroel?

• 13 curios // Dec 10, 2010 at 4:06 am

  I see now that it says he was “migeza Vishnitz”. I had recaled seeing a photo of Rabbi Chodorov (I guess his father) together with his brother-in-law Reb Mendele, while the latter visited the US in 1936.

  Asher, that’s a nice pic. But I was referring to a picture with them sitting at a head table by some sort of function.
