Thousands at Wolowik Funeral

Thousands in Crown Heights and in the Five Towns silently attended the funeral procession of the 9-year-old Levi Wolowik. Leaving from the Shomrei Hadas Chapels in Borough Park, family and many friends drove past Lubavitch World Headquarters 770 and the Chabad House in Cederhurst headed by the child's parents, Rabbi Zalman and Chanie Wolowik.

Levi and his family are warm, kind and very giving people.Those lucky enough to have taught him, taught a Malach. We were the luck ones. Stay strong, to all his family and friends and the community. Darchei was Levi’s second home, we all loved him he will forever be in our hearts.

It’s enough already with this “what will we take upon ourselves now” every time there is a tragedy. there is only one thing left for us to do and if we do it collectively, as one body, who knows we just may succeed. what we have to do now is demonstrate, protest and relentlessly demand WE WANT MOSHIACH NOW!!!!!!!!!

March 2, 2009 11:14 am

there’s only one thing and that’s to work on our achdus. we must stop the infighting and the hate we exhibit between each other especially among the shluchim. let’s pray that the parents and grandparents no of no more tza’ar and take upon ourselves in the memory of the kedoshim of mumbai and this young innocent child that we will raise them from the ground with all other zaddikim and our rebbe at their head with ahavas and achdus achim for real this time!!!

As a friend that was at the Levaya today I have to say it was by far the biggest levaya since Gimmle Tamuz, In Boro-Park there were hundreds, at 770 thousands, at Chabad of the Five towns nearly a thousand and at the cemetery there were people as far as the eye can see. Anyone that was driving with the levaya saw 10 city blocks 3 cars deep with over 500 cars, and three different police escorts as they went thru two different county’s. He a 9 near old was then buried next big Rabbonan that served for many years… Read more »
