Hi I don’t typically post to feeds, but this is a topic which is very close to my heart. I would like to tell you a story I am personally familiar with, which illustrates the incredible importance of, and benefit to the deceased by the saying of the Kaddish. In my neighborhood recently an elderly non religious Russian man passed away. Having no children his wife approached my friend an inquired as to the procedure for the kaddish and we introduced her to a professional “kaddish zugger” from shul. He informed her of the cost and although she couldnt afford the large sum, agreed to pay if it could be paid in installments. She made the first payment and he started saying kaddish for her husband. She however did not continue with the payments so after some time the fellow stopped saying the Kaddish. One day shortly after he stopped I saw him rushing somewhere rather late in the evening. When he was asked where he was rushing to, he answered “I need to find a late mincha I have to say Kaddish for the russian man.” He proceeded to tell of the old widow looking for him in a very distraught state. My late husband came to me in a dream and said the following. “Where I am now I am only here because of the kaddish you had someone say for me, but they tell me I will be moved from this place very soon because you no longer pay for him to say the kaddish, if you dont pay him I will kill you myself”. The kaddish zugger continued, “so she tracked me down and begged me to save her life and immidiately say kaddish”.
