Yeshivaworld regrets to inform you of the Petira of R’ Avrohom Yehuda Leib Pessin ZATZAL.

The Levaya will I”H take place at the Bais Yackov of Monsey at 1:00 pm (11 Smolley Drive) & will be at Kennedy Airport at 4:30 pm…..Boruch Dayan Emmes.–YW Editor.

I think he was R’Shraga Moshe’s brother in law not R’ Avrohom’s. His wife is R’ Shraga Moshe’s wfe’s sister.
I believe R” Shraga Moshe’s Rebitzen Shetichya is a Pessin.
If my memory serves me correctly, R’ Shraga Moshe’s wife is Pinsky. Her father was R’Meir Pinsky and when the Kalmanowitz’s still lived in Boro Park. the Pinskys lived in the same house on 45th St. Between 13 & 14th Aves,
Was Rabbi Pinsky a brother in law to R’ Avrohom Kalmanowitz meaning that R’ Shraga Moshe and tbl”ch the rebetzin first cousins?
He was a very big talmud chochom and the Torah world is diminished by his passing
I withdraw my comment. It is incorrect. The wives are sisters.
