    Yasher Koach for your website. I think there is a mistake in this entry. I remember him well as a Rebbe in Brighton Beach, not Borough Park. Also see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yosef_Leifer who lists among his brothers: “Rabbi Sholom Leifer, Grand Rabbi of Brighton Beach.”

    Rabbi Shalom Leifer was the Nadvorna Rebbe of Brighton Beach. I davened in his shul. His son Rabbi Shlomo Leifer was the Nadvorna Rebbe of Boro Park.

    To add to what I wrote earlier, please see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadvorna_(Hasidic_dynasty), where he writes: “Grand Rabbi Shalom Leifer of Brighton Beach, son of Rabbi Yissachar Dov Ber (Bertche) of Nadvorna-Satmar. Grand Rabbi Shlomo Leifer of Nadvorna in Boro Park, son of Rabbi Shalom of Brighton Beach ” The kever is R’ Sholom’s of Brighton.
