Morris Fatelewicz and his wife Beth and Yehuda Bayme Killed on Route 17



Morris & Beth Fatelewicz z"l
 A husband, his wife and their future son-in-law were killed in a tragic vehicular accident that left their other children in critical condition in Rock Hill, New York, this afternoon.


New York State Police officers and Hatzolah paramedics responded to a multi-car accident on Route 17, at Exit 112, at approximately 4:30 p.m. today.
The husband, Mr. Morris Fatelewicz z”l, was a devoted Hatzolah member, ES-17, from the Lower East Side of New York City and previously served as a captain with the NYPD Auxiliary Police. His wife, Mrs. Beth Faitelewicz a”h, was a nurse at Beth Israel Medical Center in Manhattan.
Their future son-in-law, who was killed in the accident, was Yehuda Bayme z”l of Riverdale, New York. Yehudah had gotten engaged at the end of June to Martin’s and Beth’s daughter, Shani.

The survivors, who are in serious condition, include the couple’s two sons and their daughter, Shani, the kallah.
The Faitelewitzes had celebrated their 34th wedding anniversary in June.
Mr. Faitelewicz was a second vice chairperson of Community Board 3 and served as citywide coordinator/deputy inspector of the New York Police Department Auxiliary Police Support Emergency Services Rescue Unit.
Mr. Faitelewicz, with 30 years of service, was commanding officer of the police auxiliary volunteer E.M.S. unit in the World Trade Center area and supervised other auxiliary units at Ground Zero for nearly nine months after 9/11. He received a New York City Council proclamation in September 2002 honoring his unit for its volunteer work at Ground Zero on and after 9/11, as well as at other major incidents, and the Port Authority’s Exceptional Service Award in June of 2002 for his work at Ground Zero.
In a sad twist, Morris was miraculously saved on 9/11 as he worked with hundreds of other Hatzolah members to save lives. Unfortunately, he was taken from this world of the same date that 9/11 happened – כג אלול.
Mr. Fatelewitz served as a senior Clinical Cardiology Instructor at Mt. Sinai Heart and owned Pre-Hospital & Hospital Emergency Cardiac Care Consultants.
The Faitelewitzes are survived by their sons, Avi and Yaakov.
Further details will be posted as they become available.
