YWN regrets to you of the Petira of Rebbetzin Miriam Twersky a”h, the Rachmistrivka Rebbetzin, wife of the late Rachmistrivka Rebbe, Harav Chai Yitzchok Twerski zt”l, and mother of the current Rachmistrivka Rebbes.

The Rebbetzin was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital on Sunday in critical condition. On Monday morning, family members were called to her bedside as her condition rapidly deteriorated, and she was subsequently niftar.

Rebbetzin Miriam a”h was the daughter of the previous Skverer Rebbe, Harav Yaakov Yosef Twersky zt”l, and was a beloved matriarch of one of the most prominent chassidic dynasties.

For decades, she stood at the side of her husband, the Rachmistrivka Rebbe zt”l, who was niftar in 2023, serving as a source of strength, dignity, and inspiration to generations of chassidim and family members.

The levayah will take place Monday afternoon at the Rachmistrivka Beis Hamedrash in Boro Park, followed by a stop in New Square. The levayah will then continue at the Rachmistrivka Beis Hamedrash on Hopal Lane in Monsey before proceeding to the Rachmistrivka chelka at Har Shalom Beis Hachaim in Airmont for kevurah.

Specific times will be announced when available.
