We regret to inform you of the Petirah of Harav Avrohom Turin Z”L, the longtime Mashgiach of Yeshiva Bais Moshe of Scranton, who was Niftar over Shabbos following a lengthy illness.
The Rav also served as the Mora D’asra of Camp Agudah Toronto for approximately 35 years.
One of the Mashgiach’s children serves as a Rav in Toms River.
The Levaya will take place in Scranton, and the Kevurah in Lakewood.
UPDATE: The Levaya will tentatively take place at 10:30 AM at the Machzeikai Hadas Shul, and then at the Scranton Yeshiva at 12:00 PM.
The Niftar will then be brought to Lakewood for a Levaya approximately 6:00 PM at Orchas Chaim, 410 Oberlin Avenue South, followed by Kevurah in Lakewood.

We need Moshiach to come!
The Mashgiach Z”L had a heart of gold, and calculated his every move with EMES. I will never ever forget his care and connection to Hashem thatn I’ve benefited from over the many years. TNZB”H
anyone know when the levaya of the great tzadik will be taking place?
BDE
Update:
There will be a full levaya in Lakewood at 6pm (location TBD) followed by the kevura.
BD”H. The Mashgiach was a Tzaadik. From an Alter Dor. Every move was according to Halacha. A real Talmid Chochum. A Godol in Torah and in Middos. Soft spoken, clear, sharp, firm when necessary.
I remember being sent to his office once (or many times), first he talked how he knew how hard it is to behave, not to do certain things, then after he would admonish. He was so caring, always asked how are you. How is your family. How is your father.
Was so careful never to hurt anyone’s feelings.
His Neshoma should have an Aliyah, and may he be a Meilitz Yosher for all of Klal Yisrael.
Oish, what a loss. I was a staff member in Agudah Toronto, just a few yrs ago, summers of ’85 and ’86 and we used to get Vaadin from the Mashgiach. They were beautiful- simple yet profound, and he was always so nice and warm to us. He never put anyone down and always had a smile.
A real Tzaddik.
Yehi Zichro Boruch
We have lost an adom gadol.
in Scranton we loved his shmuzin we would wait all shmuz until he would finally scream out with all his energy about a evil he was trying to point out, we loved that fire of mussar!
