The Boyaner Rebbe lit 45 Yartzheit Candles as Lag Baomer started, remembering the 45 Kedoshim of Meron, as we mark the second Yartzheit.

what about the 46th person that died a few days later ?
Let’s not forget two of the living victims from that tragedy. Yosef Ezriel ben Chaya Michal (Reit) and Elozor ben Re’uma (Berger)
Let’s not forget two of the living victims from that tragedy. Yosef Ezriel ben Chaya Michal (Reit), then a 15-year-old bochur, and Elozor ben Re’uma (Berger), whose bar mitzva was “celebrated” in the hospital, are still in very serious condition.
Lag Baomer’s simcha will always be shadowed by the huge tragedy 2 years ago.
Very moving
