We owe a great deal of gratitude to Mrs Groner, for all those many many years she shared her husband, the Rebbes Mazkir.

And now for his continuous serving the Chabad – Lubavich Community, with his words of Chizuk and inspiration

We wish them
אריכות ימים ושנים טובות עד ביאת גואל צדק.

Not only more beautiful than Grace Kelly

but, havadil, a brilliant teacher of Chassidus and Tanya too! Oh those wonderful days back in 1978 and 79′ sitting in Bais Rivka’s BT mechina program. Along with Mrs. Groner’s classes were the incredible shiurim in Tehillim with Morah Gorowitz, Megillas Esther and Rus with Morahs Nemes and Kahn, classes in daavening and Chassidic thought with Rabbis Gordon and Groner and, of course, Chumash and Parsha with Sterna Groner-Zirkind!
The array of stellar teachers and thinkers in Crown Heights is a treasure we have access to at our fingertips found no where else!

I’m the one who had the merit of attending Pegisha & spending my first Shabbos in Crown Heights by the Groners!
Yashar koach to Chabad on Campus for continuing this important initiative & bringing more & more of our people to lives of Torah & Mitzvos. Thanks for sharing my article!

I also went to rabbi groner for shabbat

This really brings back memories. I also went to rabbi groner for shabbat during that time period. One point she left out is rebbetzin groner’s wonderful cooking! I also was with rabbi groner when he made the pesach seder in machon chana one year. Rabbi groner told amazing stories from the rebbe and gave wonderful divrei torah

Shabbos alarm

I don’t think there was shabbos alarms in 1977. Strange that she added that part in. But it’s a beautiful inspiring story.

May you only have increased and endless blessing in ways of revealed Goodness as we prepare to greet our righteous Moshiach Zekeinu immediately.

Pretty sure there was no Shabbos alarm in 1977.
