The Rav of the shule where I grew up, where I had my bar mitzvah and my ufruff, passed away today. Growing up, I could never imagine a world without him in it.
I have lost someone I truly admire, a Rav and talmud chacham, as well as a close friend of my late parents. My mesader kedushin. A Rav who knew how to answer questions from people in a way that the questioner would not be embarrassed. a Rav with patience. A Rav who made sure all the boys learned how to daven properly for the amud and how to lein. A Rav who pushed the shule board (and some very reluctant board members) for a NCSY chapter. How do we know he was successful? About 95% of the kids who were frum back then are still frum today, with frum families.

What is the Ravs name?
Sending you heart energy.
I’m sorry for your loss takahmamash, which is also a loss for Klal Yisroel and. Your childhood rav sounds like an amazing and great neshamah. May his name be a blessing to us all.
May you find comfort with the mourners of Zion. ?
sorry to hear
may his neshama have an Aliya
may we all listen & appreciate our leaders while they are still alive & take every word of their with respect
takahmamash -“What is the Ravs name?
Rav Simcha Shafran, of Baltimore”
I’m not familiar with that part. Is it Randalstown?
What’s the name of his Shul? Not the same as Max’s Shul?
Very sorry to hear. I have heard of this Rabbi. His son, is well known as Rabbi Avi Shafran of Agudah fame. He wrote a book about his experiences in Siberia during WWII called “Fire, Ice, Air”.
takahmamash – Thanks for the info!
