He leaves his widow Brucha, a daughter Hermine, and three sons, Moses, Harry, and Abraham, all of whom, are rabbis. Funeral services will be held at 10 a. m. today in the synagogue.

   The rebbe married my parents with all of his sons. My great grandfather was very close to the Rebbe and the Rebetzin. I am attempting to find out about the relationship. I know that my parents often went to the rebetzin after his death for answers to questions that they had. My great-grandfather was David Rosenfeld, and my parents that were married by the Rebbe and his sons in 1938 were Mandel and Eve Rosenfeld

   The seeds that where planted a hundred years ago are bearing fruit today more than ever.
   With The Chicago Center, The Midwest Refuah Health Center, Khal Chessed L’Avraham, Khal Ohr Yesochor Chodrov, and The Chicago Chassidishe Kollel, the Rebbe’s grandchildren are continuing his legacy, spreading the light of Torah and chessed in Chicago.
