We regret to inform you of the Petirah of Rebbitzen Rochel Roth A”H, the wife of Hagaon Harav Yechezkel Roth Shlita – the Karlsburg Rov.
YWN reports Rebbitzen Roth suffered a heart attack in her home on Monday afternoon. She was 77.
The Levaya will be held on Monday night at the Karlsburg Bais Medrash.
The Karlsburger Rov leads a venerated beis hora’ah in Boro Park, and is one of leading Poskim in the world today.
The Karlsburger Rav has acquired a reputation as one of the most eminent poskim of the generation. He accepts the most complex sh’eilos from all sections of the Shulchan Aruch, responding in lucid, understandable terms. His piskei halachah are studied and analyzed in batei medrash l’hora’ah throughout the world, and some of his responsa to personal status and family issues have ended months and even years of halachic debate where other dayanim were unwilling to take responsibility for such sensitive rulings.
Boruch Dayan Ha’emes.
