Special Boy
March 10, 2015 7:14 am

The more time that goes by, the more we hear about how special he was especially in his yiras shomayim, ahavas yisroel and ‘living’ with everything he learned.
Does anyone know any project that was taken on , in his behalf?

March 8, 2015 11:08 pm

There are no words, i’m getting goosebumps as i read and just want to cry for his parents, relatives and good friends left behind speechless and with a empty hole in their hearts. Please people be nicer to each other! give people rides in freezing or cold weather, care for others less fortunate, support Yagdil Torah and Torah learning in Crown Heights and in every city, and most important TRULY LOVE YOUR FELLOW JEW, NO MORE TRAGEDIES HASHEM PLEASE! RACHMONUS!

דּוֹדִי יָרַד לְגַנּוֹ לַעֲרוּגוֹת הַבֹּשֶׂם לִרְעוֹת בַּגַּנִּים וְלִלְקֹט שׁוֹשַׁנִּים If Hashem is collecting his ‘roses’ just like this, all of us should feel guilty. The entire lubawich community! Like it says : Chasidim : ein Mishpoche… Are we doing enough! I toire avoide and Gemilus chasodim? Or are most of us just being dragged along. Are we really doing what the REBBE wants us to do? Hashems ‘finger’ is pointed at all of us. Uri is definitely a korban tzibur. May he be a meilitz yosher for his parents brothers and sisters. May he go to the kissei kakovoid and… Read more »

So sad
March 7, 2015 5:05 pm

We know Uri since he was little, always lit his surroundings with a special light he had in him.
Every time he visited his home he was available to study with our children no matter at what time he landed, not a minute to waste, such warmth and midot a true chassid and inspiration.
Our hearts are with the family . BDE.

Rav Gurary and his Rebbetzin are the nicest people in town. The people of Antwerp are shocked. Will the shiva be in Antwerp or New York?

Gd bless him and his Family
March 6, 2015 10:59 am

I didnt know this the young man but he sounds like a terrific example of a bochur.

I’m a mother of kana hora a young man of 18, and he means the world to me and I can’t even for a second think of what these parents are feeling. I can’t understand our Gd, it’s like there’s no balance to anything. I send my love, from one jew to another, seriously and sincerely with respect.

A friend from brunoy
March 6, 2015 9:27 am

I can’t believe ,we need MoshiachNow!he was my roommate in brunoy and I could say that he was a real doogmoh Chaye of a bochur as the rebbe wants, always smiling, a lot of ahavas Isroel and he used to learn Torah almost the whole day and at the same to be very humble and sweet. we should see him again very soon with Moshiach ! because we can’t wait anymore! So everyone could take some little thing hachlotoh to make this happen faster, and ask for Hashem bring Moshiach ! Enough is enough!ad mosay !

NO WORDS
March 6, 2015 8:44 am

I WAS HIS SHLIACH IN YESHIVA, SUCH A NICE BOCHUR WE CAN ALL LEARN FROM HIM.

March 6, 2015 8:24 am

Ad mosai we are all in shock it doesn’t make sense, he was the most special bochur I have ever known never spoke a word of nonsense in the times of learning and he wouldn’t tell someone off if he saw them talk about unimportant things during seder rather he showed them enthusiasm in learning and automatically we all started to learn. Uri you will always be in our hearts and follow in your ways like the Rebbe

BDE this is terrible and we all feel it together. Mendy, R’ Itche Meir, all – hope these words of the Rebbe at least bring some comfort, as the truth of them is clear. The Rebbe also said at a shiva that by Chasidim we know that a passing is like someone moving from the bayis to the alya, the same person going to a much higher level. Rebbe’s Words (from To Know and To Care): Rabbi Nachum Rabinovitz, an elder chassid who lives in Jerusalem, was once waiting for yechidut (a private audience with the Rebbe). Among those waiting… Read more »
