The simcha is evident in the yeshiva velt in Eretz Yisrael, with the announcement of the engagement of one of the Mir Roshei Yeshiva, HaGaon HaRav Binyamin Finkel Shlita, a second zivug.
Rav Binyamin, known to the bochurim as Rav Binyamin “HaTzaddik”, was engaged on Sunday afternoon about 18 months after he lost his first wife, Rebitzen Mina A”H, who was niftar following a short illness.
The kallah is Rochel Davis, 41, from the chareidi community of Tifrach. It is a second wedding for Mrs. Davis as well.

Than you YWN for reporting this story. All too often , these kind of simchas among the older segment of the tzibur go unreported.
I would like to make a short correction to this story. Rebbetzin Mina o”h was niftar after a LONG illness, not a short illness.

Was she the daughter of Reb Yitzchok Cohen ?
Rainus:
Sometims I just don’t get it. Was it really necessary to remind the YWN readership and the family at this time of simcha that the Rebbitzen, A’H, was niftar after suffering through a LONG illness (versus a shorter one). Obviously, that is important to know at this time for some reason I cannot understand.
