YWN regrets to inform you of the Petira HaRav Mordechai HaKohen Beck Zt”l, Rosh Yeshiva of Tiferes Moshe in Monsey, who was approximately 80 years old.
Sources tell Monsey Scoop that the Rosh Yeshiva collapsed Tuesday morning while at the yeshiva and suffered a cardiac arrest. Rockland Hatzoloh paramedics responded immediately and performed extensive lifesaving efforts before transporting him to Good Samaritan Hospital. Despite every effort, he was sadly niftar.
The levaya will take place at 5:30 PM at the yeshiva, located at 38 College Road in Monsey, followed by the kevurah at Satmar Beis HaChaim in Kiryas Yoel.
Baruch Dayan Ha’Emes.

Boruch Dayan H’ames!
What a loss!
He had a brilliant mind and was a huge Talmid Chuchem, a Rosh Yeshiva for thousands of talmidim for many years. He will sorely be missed.

Is that one of the brothers of the אפשא Beck family?
One of the original talmidim of Rav Shneur Zatza”l. A real lamdan. Any update on the levaya?
