Rav Yosef Weiss zt”l wasn’t just a menahel. He was a guide, a mashpiah, a friend, and an inspiration to thousands.
He was an individual who touched so many lives in so many ways.
His fatherly love and his expansive heart touched people of all ages.
To him, every person, every child, was a world unto himself, an olam maleh. He treated every individual as a vital, integral member of Klal Yisroel, and he accorded them the utmost respect, encouraging, guiding and uplifting.
As we remember and seek to emulate Rabbi Weiss, we are embarking on a campaign beginning with a dedication of a Sefer Torah in his memory, and continuing with adding his additional dream projects in Yeshiva.
We know that there are 600,000 letters in a Sefer Torah and each of them are vital and indispensable. This reflects the way Rabbi Weiss lived his own life, viewing everyone, young and old, as an indispensable part of the klal.
Please join us and participate as an eternal zechus for the neshomah of our beloved Rabbi Weiss.
The article doesn’t say where he was menahel! Where did he live? Which school?
He was the Menahel in Yeshiva Shagas Aryeh in Lakewood. He was an unbelievably warm person who instilled a love of Yiddishkeit and Torah in all his Talmidim. His mission was to create a ruach of Simchas Hachaim and Simchas Hamitzvos and he was very successful! The warmth and ruach that permeates Shagas Aryeh is something very special and very unique.
