Mrs. Chaya Chana Twersky A”H, who stood by her husband for decades as he inspired tens of thousands of chassidim and admirers in the US and across the world. She was 81 years old.
The Rebbetzin suffered from various serious health issues over the past few years. Her condition had deteriorated over the last several weeks.
The Rebbetzin comes from regal rabbinic heritage, as she was the oldest daughter of the late Vishnitzer Rebbe Zt”l of Bnei Brak, known as the Yeshuos Moshe. Her siblings – all of them leaders of major Chasidus’s – visited her over the past two weeks as her physical condition declined.
Her brothers are the Vishnitzer Rebbe of Bnei Brak (Reb Yisroel), the Vishnitzer Mercaz Rebbe (Reb Mendel); her sisters are the Belzer Rebbetzin, the Satmar (Kiryas Joel) Rebbetzin, and the wife of HaRav Menachem Ernster, the rosh yeshiva of the Vizhnitz Yeshiva in Bnei Brak.
The Rebbetzin is survived by the Rebbe shlit”a, her grieving children, and thousands of Skverer Chassidim – many of whom she personally helped and was involved with on personal matters.
The pearls! The necklace! The priutzdike hat! The shaytel hair! The visible female face!
ReplyDeletePriutzes! Entirely priutzes!
The entire pursuit needs to be shut down!
The Rebbitzen is not a Mrs. She was a Rebbitzen and nothing else.
ReplyDeleteI and the vased majority of Frum Jews never met her or even heard of her till now.
ReplyDeleteMost Skverer chasidim probably never spoke to her.
For those who did know her I send my condolences.
Was she friendly with Mrs. Clinton?
