I have no words! This Bachur was such a yiras shoumayim, so shy and fine, silk, he would immerse in Davening all years as if he had this gut feeling that his life is short and will return it quickly to his creator. I have known him since he was a little child. May his wonderful parents and grandparents find comfort in the good memories he leaves behind,
