The entire student body and faculty of Oholei Torah, along with many hundreds of alumni, joined the levaya of Rabbi Yossel Rosenfeld, the school’s longtime executive director, as it passed the school building and then 770.

While the levaya was at Oholei Torah, menahel Rabbi Hershel Lustig gave an impassioned address, describing the dedication the niftar had for the school and yeshiva, and asking him to intercede on high for the yeshivos to have success as the battle against forces that wish to destroy them.
