May the godol hador have a speedy recovery.
Why an earth do we see our treasured gedolim traveling round the world when some are either in poor health or are 100 years old! Why do the gaboim or yeshiva trustees allow this/ Surely this is not kovod hatora?
refua shlaima to the gadol hador.
He came for the annual yeshiva dinner, which was dedicated to his wife a”h of almost 70 years. He didn’t simply travel across the world fundraising.

It is said about a gadol that at a cetain point he remains in this world for the benefit of the people. If a gadol just sits at home, and doesnt go out to the people, whats the point. I believe that is why R’ Steinman has also traveled around the world in recent years, despite his age. our gedolim are there for us!
May the Rosh Yeshiva have a speedy recovery. Amen
Rav Scheinberg’s mother’s name is pronounced Yuspuh, not as spelled Yosefa, according to what his family has told me in the past. In any case, may he have a refuah shelaimah b’soch shar cholei Yisroel.
The correct name is Chaim Pinchas be Yospeh
היים פינחס בן יוספא
pronounced [vowels in brackets]
Yud — vav — samech [shva] — pay [segal] — alef
Lbk, I think you meant to say wife of 80 years, not 70 years! They were married as teenagers, and now he is 100 bli ayin hora
