Boro Park - We are saddened to inform of the petira of Reb Dov Ber Gross z"l, a longtime Boro Park resident and member of the Vizhnitzer kehilla, who passed away on Monday at age 83.

Reb Berela, as he was known, was a loyal friend to so many people, interesting himself in their welfare and even undergoing strenuous trips to attend their simchas. He would make frequent trips to Eretz Yisroel and other countries to participate in the chasnuas of his friends, not considering the expense or drain on his strength.

Reb Berela was close to many rebbes and rabbanim, speaking to them and attending their tishen.

He unfortunately not survived by any children. Please learn mishnayos l’ilui nishmas his neshama.

Yehi zichro boruch.
