YWN regrets to inform you of the sudden Petirah of Reb Zalman Malinowitz Z”L. Reb Zalman reportedly suffered a massive heart attack at his home today while walking on the treadmill, going into Cardiac Arrest.
Multiple Hatzolah members were at his home immediately after the incident, but were unfortunately unable to resuscitate him. He was 58.
Reb Zalman Z”L, was a Rebbe in Darchei Torah in Far Rockaway, New York and known for his dedication in overseeing the BMG Vasikin Minyan. He leaves behind his wife and many children and grandchildren. Mrs. Malinowitz served as a principal in a Deal, NJ girls high school, and currently serves as the principal in Bnos Bracha in Lakewood.
The Levaya will be taking place at the BMG Bais Medrash HaYoshon at 7 PM. The levaya will then continue to Yeshiva Darchei Torah, where there will be hespedim in the Beis Medrash of Mesivta Chaim Shlomo at 11:30 P.M.

Bd”e. I remember him from my yeshiva days. His talmidim used to flock around him eager to hear every word. Darchei Torah lost a very dear rebbe. He will be truly missed.

WHAT A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY AT SUCH A YOUNG AGE
Wish we could have avoided this tragedy from occurring and shocking us by doing teshuva.
What will we all commit to do in his zchus? So Hashem sees we get the wakeup message and don’t ever need to lose any more Talmidei chachamim
May his neshama have an a liya
