We regret to inform you of the petirah of the renowned gaon and marbitz Torah, HaRav Elazar Yonah Ginsberg zt”l, Rav of Agudas Achim and a prominent talmid chacham.
Rav Ginsberg, the son of Rav Tzvi Meir of Agudas Harrabanim, brother of the Chuster Rebbe of Boro Park, and brother-in-law of the Skolya Rebbe of Boro Park, was known for his avodas Hashem and warm connection to each and every mispallel in his kehillah. For decades, he served as a guiding light and spiritual anchor for the members of Agudas Achim, imbuing every shiur and drashah with clarity and depth.
The levayah is scheduled to take place Tuesday morning at 10:00 AM, at Bais Medrash Toldos Yitzchok, located at 937 East County Line Road in Lakewood. Additional parking will be available in the rear of the building, accessible from Kennedy Boulevard.
Kevurah will take place in the Koson Chelka in Deans, NJ.
The niftar is survived by an illustrious mishpacha of bnei Torah and rabbanim, including his rebbetzin, sons who are rabbanim and marbitzei Torah, and einiklach who continue his legacy.
Yehi zichro baruch.
