Rabbi Small was an incredible inspiration to me and my family, always providing warm hospitality, deep insights and a constant love of Jews and Israel. Our time with Rabbi Small and the words he shared with us will never be forgotten. Our thoughts and love are with the family.

He was a very very special Uncle to me. He cared very much about everyone in the family. He was a true Rodef Sholom. He was a humble person who was not petty at all. He made it his business to know how his nephews and nieces were doing, and he would constantly see the good in people that had at least some goodness in them. They dont make ’em like him any more! What a loss!
