  1. HaGoan Rav Avrohom Kanarek Ztl was Rosh Yeshiva Yeshivas Chofetz Chaim In Yerushalayim for over fifty years impacting the lives of many hundreds of talmidim. His hasmada was legendary. Rav Kanarek had a seder with Rav Moshe Ztl in the early years in America,Rav Moshe even quotes Rav Kanarek in teshuvos as a bar plugta. In Eretz Yisroel Rav Kanarek was held in high esteem by Rav Elyashiv Ztl. As the last living talmid of Rav Boruch Ber in Kaminetz its truely the end of an era.

  2. If I am not mistaken hus father took his sons (including Rav Avraham) for a vacation in the early 30s to Lithuania to meet the Gedolei Torah of that time. They visited the Chifetz Chaim and though he was very young, it made an impression he would never forget. He and his brother (later of New Rochelle and Peekskill) decided to devote their lives to Torah.
