Joseph:

I am not sure of the intended message in your comment. But one way I might interpret it was dismissive, suggesting that whoever someone’s Rov is, that he might fill in the boots left empty by the passing of Rabbi Ronnie Greenwald ZT”L. Well, I beg to differ. There is no average Rov, regardless of the many possible maalos he has, that can achieve the extremes of Ahavas Yisroel that we were privileged to observe in R’ Ronnie ZT”L. I do not say that no one can come close, but just an average Rov, no. He was an enigma, presenting himself to many as just another funny guy, while he was a powerhouse behind the scenes. His accomplishments were in so many areas, and his mesiras nefesh was light years greater than anyone else we know. I sincerely hope you were not being dismissive, suggesting that anyone can do what R’ Ronnie ZT”L did.
