Mrs. Miriam Slavin, a Holocaust survivor, longtime Crown Heights resident and matriarch of a large Chabad family, passed away.

She was the daughter of Rabbi Yitzchok Dovid Sholom Mincberg, who served as mashgiach ruchni of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin in Poland.

Mrs. Slavin survived the Holocaust together with her mother and sisters. Her father and brothers were killed during the war.

After the war, she married R’ Tzvi Hirsh Slavin in Paris. The couple later settled in Crown Heights, where they raised their family.

In later years, Mrs. Slavin shared her wartime experiences with younger generations, recounting her life before the war, the years of the Holocaust, and the rebuilding of her family afterward.

She is survived by her children, R’ Eli Slavin of Crown Heights, Rabbi Velvel Zev Slavin of Kfar Chabad, Mrs. Batya Goldberger of Crown Heights, and Rabbi Dovid Slavin of Sydney, Australia, as well as grandchildren and great-grandchildren, many of whom are Shluchim around the world.

She was predeceased by her husband, R’ Hershel Slavin, and their daughter, Mrs. Tzivia Zaklos.

The levaya will pass by 770 on Wednesday, 13 Elul, at 1:30 PM.
