Fron what I heard, he led a Yekkishe minyan in Borough Park, Brooklyn, NY.
I believe the spelling is with an s rather than a z (Wiesner, rather than Wiezner).
Searching for grandparents kevorim – they davened at Rabbi Wiesner’s shul and were laid to rest nearby. Thank you I can now proceed to find them.
(Hopefully up by the time I get there..)
Hello, would you happen to know his “civil” or civilian birth name? Could it have been Béla?
