YERUSHALAYIM: Petirah Of Wife Of Reb Yossele Gutfarb, Known To Many Yeshiva Bochurim For Her Hachnosas Orchim


YWN regrets to inform you of the Petira of Mrs. Chaya Gutfarb A”H, the wife of Reb Yossele Gutfarb, a prominent and well-known figure in the Zichron Moshe Beis Midrash in Yerushalayim. She was 68.

Mrs. Gutfarb was renowned for her exceptional Hachnosas Orchim and Chesed, and was well known by many American Yeshiva Bochrim.

Born on the 22nd of Kislev, 5717 (1956) in Yerushalayim, Mrs. Gutfarb was the daughter of Rabbi Eliyahu Yehuda Lubetzky Z”L.

She was known to Daven with deep Kavanah for her sons, daughters, family, and the entire Klal Yisroel, serving as an extraordinary example of modesty in her dress and conduct. She shunned worldly pleasures, and her words of wisdom and ethical teachings were likened to pearls and precious gems.

Her home in the Makor Baruch neighborhood was a beacon of kindness and warmth, open to all with abundant hospitality. Day and night, she welcomed guests, offering them comfort and listening attentively to their troubles and sorrows.

Her Levaya was held on at Shangar, and Kevura was to take place on Har HaZeisim.

Boruch Dayan Ha’Emes.

  1. Baruch Dayan Haemes. Such a Special family.
    Can any Bachurim who have been to the Rebbetzen’s home for Shabbos please write how it was and Their Hachnasat Orchim?

  2. Happy new year: I agree that the headline was poorly written (reminiscent of a hesped where the speaker said הויזן instead of הייזער). However clearly what was meant was that her Hachnosas Orchim and Chesed was know to many Yeshiva bochurim.
