It is with great sadness that Matzav.com reports the petirah of “the Tzaddik of Raanana,”Rav Refoel Edri zt”l. He was 80 years old.

Rav Refoel was the stepson of the Tzaddik from Raanana, Rav Yitzchok Hoberman.

His wife, Rebbetzin Chasida Edri, who passed away after having a stroke about 9 years ago, was a daughter of the mekubal Rav Elazar Edri.

His leadership in Raanana was well known, and people would flock to Yeshiva Birkas Yitzchak in Raanana to receive brachos and advice from the noted tzaddik and mekubal. He had a special connection to the Shas party and Shas chairman Aryeh Deri.

He leaves behind four sons and five daughters and dozens of grandchildren.

The levayah was held this morning at his yeshiva in Raanana. Kevurah will take place on Har Hamenuchos in Yerushalayim.

Yehi zichro boruch.
