His ahavas Yisroel/chinam was total and genuine. And would bend over beyond backwards to help a fellow yid. And if teaching during the six weekdays wasn’t enough, he had the most amazing junior minyan on shabbos as well. And all this without looking for acknowledgment or credit.

Rabbi Engel went above and beyond his title as a rebbi. He made a davening program in 770 on Shabbos. He took personal interest in the boys. He made them mesibos shabbos and took them along on tahalucha, long after he stopped teaching them. May he have a lichtige gan eden!!

He wasn’t just an incredible uncle, he was the most genuine human being and never even a thought to have anything in return for his generosity and kindness.

He will be terribly missed.
