Petirah of Reb Chaim Lipschutz z”l

It is with profound sorrow that Matzav.com reports the heartbreaking petirah of Reb Chaim Lipschutz z”l, a beloved yungerman in the Lakewood, NJ community, who was niftar on Shabbos, Erev Pesach, in Chicago.

Reb Chaim was a son of Rav Avrohom Lipschutz, mashgiach of Yeshivas Telshe in Chicago, and a grandson of Rav Yacov Lipschutz zt”l of Monsey and Rav Yisroel Meir Kagan, rosh yeshiva of Yeshiva Toras Chaim of Denver.

A choshuve ben Torah and talmid chochom, Reb Chaim had just gotten married a couple years ago. He was fully immersed in limud haTorah, learning in kollel with great hasmadah, and was seen by all who knew him as someone destined for greatness in Torah and avodah.

His devoted wife, Mrs. Adina Lipschutz (née Heinemann), descends from a distinguished Torah lineage as well. She is a daughter of Rav Boruch Gedaliah Heinemann and a granddaughter of Rav Dovid Heinemann, rosh yeshiva of Belmar, and Rav Shaye Schechter, R”M at Yeshiva of Telshe Alumni in Riverdale, and a great-granddaughter of Maran Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky, rosh yeshiva of the Philadelphia Yeshiva.

This sudden and devastating loss has cast a heavy pall of mourning over the entire family and all who knew this precious yungerman, whose life was steeped in kedushah and Torah.

The levayah will take place tonight outside Telshe Yeshiva in Chicago at 3535 W. Foster Ave. There will be an audio hookup for the levayah. To listen, call 773-945-6338 and then dial the ID 353510#.

Yehi zichro boruch.
