Reply To: Using "self-composed" prayers for people facing serious tzuros

Truth be told: “I now remember reading that Yated article about Harav Stein Shlita by his sons levaya. He asked his son, not the oilam (though I’m sure he wouldn’t object and would be happy about it), to “beht far di techter”.

What you say is true – this was at the Levaya itself in front of Harav Stein son’s Aron. I am referring to the Hesped approoximately 2 weeks later in Lakewood where , if my memory, serves me correctly, Harav Stein Shlita spoke to the Oilam asking them to be Mispallel for the “techter” and also for childless couples. If someone could check with the Yated to find out if this is true, I would be very grateful.
