Wrong thread.

I think it was meant not as a prod at the deceased, but as a lesson for us to have in mind. We all do things sometimes that we wouldn't do if people knew (or if they knew our intent). But in the next world everything will be known.

I haven't seen him in decades (I think). I actually thought he lived in EY. IINM he's Yankel Baitch's FIL.

The last time he came to the US he got sick and ended up staying in Crown Heights. I don’t remember exactly when that was. He used to stay at our house when he came collecting and left an indelible impression on the entire family.

[YitzyS]

I never heard of him, but I saw the news of his petira on many non-Chabad sites, so I'm assuming that his influence reached beyond his own circles.

He was an elderly Russian, Lubavitcher chassid of the old school. Real, warm and as sincere an eved Hashem as I’ve ever met. He collected money for Kiryat Malachi in many Jewish communities, with tremendous mesirus nefesh.

Yup, he used to come to our cheder and camp and talk about the mesiras nefesh for yiddishkeit in Russia. He used to to cry too, I remember him from years ago and it left a major impression on the kids. A real chossid of old. יהא זכרו ברוך

Eta. I didn't remember him from his name, but from seeing his face now in the news I right away recognized that's him, so attaching it here maybe others knew him as well.
