YWN regrets to inform you of the Petira of Hagaon HaRav Yisroel Chaim Menashe Friedman ZATZAL, the Rosh Av Beis Din of Satmar in Williamsburg. He was 94.
The Niftar was a Dayan in Satmar for decades, since the time of the Divrei Yoel ZATZAL – who appointed him as a Dayan.
He was Niftar on an auspicious day in Satmar, Chof Alef Kislev, the day that the Divrei Yoel was saved from the Nazis YM”S.
The Levaya will be held today (Monday) at 12:00PM at the Satmar Bais Medrash located at 152 Rodney Street. The Kevura will be held in Kiryas Yoel.
Boruch Dayan HaEmmes…

Was he at the satmar wedding ?
interesting rav friedman zatzl was a product of beis medrash elyon along with a whole group of giants from that noble tekufa
Rav Friedma Zatzal eas a giant in Torah and missed. He was a distinguished Talmud Chacham. He had many Talmidim including both Rav Aron &Rav Zalman Leib of Satmar. He was a man of a few words and many deeds. Satmar and the world has lost a noble man.
