I worked for him for three successive summers, and I remember him as a rather nice fellow. I didn’t know much more of him other than as a summer employee. Can anyone enlighten me as to who Rabbi Koff was?
Boruch Dayan Emes. Rabbi Koff Z”L was a wonderful, patient mechaneich and an outstanding person. He taught in several yeshivos in the Far Rockaway/Five Towns/Long Beach areas, and he was an understanding rebbie. All his talmidim were very fond of him. I believe he went on to be a Menahel in a new Yeshivah. This was a huge shock to all of us who did not even know he was ill.
I was a student under him, Yeshiva Ketana ff Long Island (YKLI), & I remember him almost like a father. He was an amazing fellow. Very Understanding & caring. It shocked me to learn from one of my old classmates from YKLI that he had passed away.
