Any info on the levaya?
Will it be a Zoom?
Dovid a”h was an ish choshuv. He was an anav and a Baal chesed. It is surreal to be writing about him in the past tense. He was a remarkable friend and neighbor we are still reeling from the shock of his petira. He leaves behind an amazing wife and 6 wonderful children kah whom he raised with so much love care and attention.To say he will be missed is an understatement. There are no words to comfort he should be a maylitz yoshar for his family and all of klal yisroel yehi zichro Boruch
bde how old was he?
Rabbi Berg was the best teacher with whom I had the z’cus to work this year. He had thorough knowledge of the content. He was a talmud chacham and had the respect of his talmidim and all who taught in mesivta with him.
He will be sorely missed.
