A true tzaddik – whoever he spoke to – he influenced – always for the better, positive side.

this is devastating news, heartbreaking… he had the kohen blessing on his lips at the ready at all times, to jews and sometimes even non jews alike believe it or not. a pious, simple, cheerful man, a jew who counted his blessings, big and small. what a shame this is. all i can say is he should be a bider beiter for his children; grandchildren; greatgrankids.

No relation

Don’t know of that member in Montreal. But the children are Baruch Traurig – Lilly Ostfeld – Milly Adler – and I know there is another daughter who resides more south. In any case, there should only be simchas and bsoros tovos from now on for this family and klal yisroel. Amen.
