BDE. When I was in Camp Morris (his summer home for a number of years when i was there) he made a siyum on a Masechta on Gemara (I forgot which one)! The crowd that attended was overcome with emotion as he said the hadran. Everyone gave him mazel tov & we danced with him. It was an amazing simcha to see someone who worked on himself so much. It’s a major lesson to us who are able to grasp the torah easier, kol v’chomer how much we can accomplish!
May he be a meilitz yosher for his family, friends, and all of Klal Yisrael. Yehei Zichro Boruch.
