who are his parents?
A true tzaddik, ben torah, and all around wonderful person. What a sad day for klal yisroel. Hashem should confort his family among the mourners of zion and jerusalem. May his wife and children find comfort and happiness.
Baruch Dayan HaEmes. He was a real great person. Even when he was sick, he was still in Yeshiva as much as possible shteigin away. A big loss for klal yisroel. May his family know no more tzaros.
(His parents are R’ Chaim and Miriam Chait from Far Rockaway.)
did he go to Yeshiva teferes yisroel – (east 35th street in flatbush) for High School?
Any relation to Rav Boruch Chait, from Maaravah?
His wife is a daughter of Paul and Kraindel Pinkus of Chicago.
YES she is a pinkus from chicago
His father is a cousin of R’ Boruch Chait
I think he did go to Tiferes Yisroel for High School.
Boruch Dayan Emmes!
As someone else who also knew him I can simply say he was a tzaddik. May Hashem comfort the family b’toch shar avlei tzion v’yerushalayim. And may they know no more tzaros.
Does anyone know if the levaya can still be heard by calling the number above? I tried calling it, but it did not seem to work. Thank you!
dgmiami, his parents are Rabbi Chaim and Miriam Chait of Far Rockaway. Incidentally, the listing above this one, Pinchus Netzer, was a cousin of Refoel Zev’s.
does anyone have an address for where Chaim and Miriam Chait are sitting shivah?
If anyone has information on where shiva is (his parents and his wife) I would appreciate it being posted, or being referred to where I could get the information (a shul or yeshiva office phone number). Thank you.
