   No, his father was Rav Mordechai and he is buried in EY.

   @MBD this is not rabbi Mordechai’s father, it is a cousin once removed.

    I found a blurb from a Brookly newspaer from world war one era that a Private Issac Savitsky was wounded. Was The Rav in the army?

    The book wasn’t signed. Many of the exact sefor had the address written inside after they forgot to include it in the sefor. It was written by the publishers. The copy I have has it as well.

    As far as we know he was not an uncle of Rabbi Mordechai Savitsky. Possibly a cousin.
