Yoni Garber…….Bob got it right, Rabbi Oshry was on the lower East side, I’d know I still live there.
Perhaps a relative had a shul on east 17th?
His son Rav Yosef Dov Shlita has a Shul on East 17th between N-O in Flatbush
I stand corrected. I had heard from someone that she worked for R’ Oshry when he lived in the Bronx.
