  1. A massive תלמיד חכם! This completes the tremendous loss which began a few years ago when he suffered a debilitating stroke. What a loss! His father in law Rav Leizerowski זצ”ל was a precious person – a survivor of חורבן אירופה. Rabbi Brisman’s marriage to his daughter Libby, and their children, were a tremendous source of נחת to the Rov and Rebbetzin. Who can forget when shabbos morning in Oxford Circle, the Rov (who would speak from the pulpit in Yiddish) would, with a huge smile, introduce his brilliant Talmid Chochom eidim (Rav Brisman) “צו רעדין אין גוייש” (in English). תהא נפשו צרורה בצרור החיים
