Tragedy In Los Angeles: Tragic Petira Of HaBochur Shimmy Grama [UPDATED 1:00PM EST]


A car crash has R”L claimed the life of a young man in Los Angeles, Monday afternoon.

Shimon (Shimmy) Yosef Grama Z”L, 22, was reportedly driving back from LAX, when he was involved in a serious crash on La Cienega Boulevard. Emergency personal extricated him from the vehicle, but he was Niftar a short while later from massive injuries.

Shimmy was always involved in Chesed projects, and volunteered this past summer as a counselor for Kids Of Courage.

He is the son of Rabbi Daniel & Mrs. Ruthy Grama.

Rabbi Grama is a Rebbe at Valley Torah High School.

Sources tell YWN that the Niftar has still not been released by authorities, therefore Levaya information is not yet available. Kevura will be taking place in Eretz Yisroel.

The Levayah will take place at Beth Jacob, 9030 W. Olympic Blvd, Beverly Hills – Today at 2pm (Pacific Time)

The levayah will continue to JFK airport on Wednesday morning at 9:00 at the Elal Cargo Hangar

From there they will be continuing on to Eretz Yisroel for the Kevurah (Details will be published shortly)
