Misaskim has requested that TLS post a change in plans for the Levaya of Reb Shlomo Pomerantz Z’L. The Levaya will be taking place at the Ramada Hotel Parking Lot at the JFK Airport, at 9:00 PM. Reb Pomerantz, a son-in-law of Reb Asher Weil of Chicago and with family in Lakewood, was Niftar in Chicago following a lengthy illness..
The Aron is expected to arrive in Eretz Yisroel on Monday evening on El Al flight 008. A Levaya will be held at about 7:15 p.m. on Har Hamenuchos.
Shivah information will be posted when available.
R Shlomie was a special person from his days in yehsiva. Although it was many years between that we spoke, i always felt a close kesher from the small group of bochrim who came from Philadelphia to be the pioneers in South Bend yeshiva.
Shlomie was a very special person. Anyone who read his letters in the Yated received a glimpse of his kedusha and avoda.
May he be a meilitz yosher to his wife, children and extened family.
I’m being told there will be a 9:00 phone hook up 559-546-1000 ext# 684739
Sorry! there was a hook-up but my comment wasn’t posted before the Hespaidim were finished. May Shlomie have “lichtega gan eden” and may his zechuyos be a constant shmira for his family, talmidim & and freinds
I met reb shloime once but his warmth the poured out was amazing! He should be a malitz yosher to all of klal yisroel and to his hielige mishpacha
I am sad to hear about it since I am from Chicago!
