  1. His info and story is written by the entrance of the cemetery.
    He was killed crossing over the train tracks by an oncoming train . He had a a couple of seforim in tallis bag, amongst them a tanya wich he was carrying at the time. The burial societies of freehold fought between each other ”
    עלי ינוח צדיק “so they buried him in between .זכותו יגן עלינו

  2. He was hidden until a journalist discovered him and interviewed him for several hours. He was so impressed he created a four day series of articles about this great man. Exactly one day before the first article was to be published the Tzadik left this world. We are working on translating the original articles from Yiddish to English. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 732 278 99 61

  3. There was an article about him in one of the heimisha weeklies about 10 years ago. Certainly made him sound like a huge Tzadik. No doubt he can be Poel Yeshuas if you go daven at his kever. Thanks for posting this opportunity

  4. It’s pretty straight forward to find, here are some tips: You can follow Waze to “freehold Hebrew benefit society cemetery “. Go in to the last entrance to the cemetery (3rd) and park at the end of the rd. A short walk about half way back, and half way up and you will find the kever (look for the enclosed metal stand to light a ner – as in the picture above.)

  5. In articles that were published years ago there was an interview with his daughter , then living.
    The sefer he had with him was a Gemara Sanhedrin.
