Lubavitcher Yeshiva Academy (LYA) of Longmeadow, MA celebrated a Torah dedication in memory of Moshe Brown, obm on his first yahrzeit just before Pesach.
Moshe Brown and his wife Joanne were members of the Lubavitch community of greater Boston for almost 40 years. They were supporters of Chabad of Boston, and Joanne worked in the office at the Chabad House, a job she held for twenty years.
The event was attended by almost 250 people. The Torah was donated by his wife, Joanne Brown. Many people in the community dedicated sections of the Torah as well.
The Torah was completed at the home of his daughter and son-in-law, Rabbi Chaim and Rochel Leah Kosofsky, shluchim in Longmeadow, MA. Many people from the general community participated in the completion of the writing of the Torah. Most of the people had never attended a Torah dedication before and were moved by the experience.
The crowd marched with the Torah down Converse Street to its new home at Beis Medrash Lubavitch / LYA accompanied by live music. After lively hakafos and dancing, a dinner was served.
We were honored to know Moshe and Joannes for 40 years.Moshe was a true ba’al tzedokah and a good friend. What a beautiful way to honor him
