BDE: Rav Duvid Yaakov Einhorn, z"l


YS GOLD 

We regret to inform you of the passing of Rav Duvid Yaakov Einhorn of New Square, an admired and respected personality in the shtetl. He was 77 years of age. 

The niftar was the son of Reb Chaim and Rochel Einhorn. His mother was the daughter of Rav Dovid Yaakov Brisk, Hy"d, ABD Tisa-Dada, Hungary, and he was named for her father who perished in the Holocaust. 

Rav Duvid Yaakov was one of the foremost chinuch personalities in New Square, and served as the helm of the chinuch system for many years--gaining thousands of talmidim in the process. He was also instrumental in producing the Skverer siddur, and was a guardian of the Skverer nusach. 

On top of all of this, he was a tremendous talmid chochom and gaon and imparted from his knowledge to thousands of talmidim. He was also a tremendous masmid who learned non-stop. 

His derashos to the young people of the community were legendary, and he would draw upon his vast fountain of knowledge of Torah and chassidus. 

One talmid relates that he credits Rav Duvid Yaakov with all the Torah that he has. 

He was unwell for the past few years, and returned his neshamah to its Maker in the early hours of Monday morning, leaving behind beautiful generations of chassidim and yirei Shomayim. 

The levaya will take place today in New Square. 

Yehi zichro baruch.
