Rav Horowitz was born in Vienna, his father Rav Yaakov Yitzchok Horowitz, was the Riglitzer Rav. He was named after his grandfather the Liminover Rav and author of Meoros Nosson. Before moving to Monsey the Rav headed Khal Sheiris Yisrael in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
At the time of his passing the Rav was the most senior Moreh Dasrah in Monsey.

I remember Rabbi Horowitz, he was a very special person.
The Rav?s other grandfather was the Altshteter Rav.
he was named after his grandfather the riglitzer rav not the liminover rav
To #3: The Liminiver Rov’s name was Nosson, not the Riglitzer Rov’s.
I remember that big Shabbos in Monsey when he 1st became Rav. He replaced the Veitzener Rav of Chicago that was first there on trial.
Does anybody know who took over his position in the shul and has anybody printed his tshuvos
The current Rov in Bais Yisroel is Rav Dovid Margaretin shlit”a.
I, too, remember Reb Nosson z”l. His saintly figure was a regular one in Monsey on any given shabbos afternoon. In his older years his children or msipalelim placed chairs along his route from his home to the shul. He would sit and rest periodically and people would take the oppotunity to wish him a gut shabbos and speak to him in halacha. Z’chuso yagen aleinu.
