Matzav- Petirah of Rav Shimon Hirsch zt”l, who passed away at the age of 91.
Rav Hirsch was a devoted talmid of Rav Aharon Kotler zt”l at Bais Medrash Govoah, where he imbibed the teachings and spirit of Torah that would guide him throughout his life.
For over five decades, Rav Hirsch served as a beloved rebbi in Monsey, NY, where his commitment to chinuch, harbotzas haTorah, and nurturing talmidim left an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of learning from him. Later, Rav Hirsch and his family moved to Lakewood.
(Rav Hirsch was originally from Chicago and a direct descendent of Rav Shamshon Refoel Hirsch ztl)
The levaya will take place at 10:30 a.m. at the Lutzk Bais Medrash Simcha Room on New Egypt Road in Lakewood. The aron will then be taken to Monsey, where he will be laid to rest at the Beth Tefilo Chelka there.
