What a tragic & sudden event to occur in the middle of Sukkos-the yom tov of happiness-or anytime for the matter.

lakewood R”L in the last year alone has lost many young & innocent people that have left to the olam haemes at young ages & in strage ways. how many can you remember? we lost 2-13 year old boys, we lost a 37 year old Talmid chacham, we lost a 12 year old, we lost a 4 month old baby R”L. do i need to continue?…..

HOW MANY MORE of these tragic events will need to occur C”V before we wake-up & face truth & reality. is there anyone that thinks these are just coincidence? or is Hashem calling us to wake-up & waiting for us to do teshuva (kol yisroel areivim…. i.e. this is not just for residents of lakewood Ihr Hakodesh, but for all of klal yisroel)

it is up to each one of us to come together as a nation & return to Hashem, so these tzaros can end & hashem can return to us & bring Mashiach b’karov. Hasheivenu Hashem ailecha….

MAY HIS NESHAMA HAVE AN ALIYA
everyones teillim was a big zchus for the neshama & made a big difference.

what can we say in the face of such a tragedy – May Hashem comfort the family and give them strength to go on. We all suffer with you and are terribly pained at this horrifying news, but we know that we can’t feel what you are feeling and can only daven for your nechamah, and hope and cry for R’ Tzvi to be the korbon that finally brings Moshiach.
