yitzchok-finkel-mir-yerushalayim-2It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Rav Yitzchok Finkel zt”l, R”M at Yeshiva Mir Yerushalayim. He was just 43 years old.

Rav Yitzchok was the fifth son of Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel zt”l, rosh yeshiva of Yeshivas Mir Yerushalayim, and a brother of Rav Eliezer Yehudah Finkel, current rosh yeshiva of Yeshivas Mir Yerushalayim.

Rav Yitzchok suffered from a terminal illness of the last period and endured great yissurim during that time. He devoted his life to limud and harbotzas haTorah, and was known for his outstanding hasmadah, yiras Shomayim and dikduk b’mitzvos. His passing has plunged his family and the greater Yeshivas Mir community into mourning.
