A fund has been set up to support the family of Rabbi Avraham Golovacheov, a Chabad Shliach who dedicated his life to growing the Jewish community of Berlin, Germany. He was 43 and battled an illness with courage.
Rabbi Golovacheov was a key figure in the development of Berlin’s rabbinic infrastructure, serving as mazkir of the Beis Din under Chief Rabbi Yehuda Tiechtel.
In this role, he oversaw a wide range of rabbinic matters, including sensitive cases of birur yahadus, and played a key role in the expansion and strengthening of kashrus certification throughout the city.
Rabbi Golovacheov also led the publishing house of the Jüdische Gemeinde Chabad Berlin, where he oversaw the translation and dissemination of classic Jewish texts into German.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Chana, and their young children: Shterna Sara, Sholom Dovber, Shmuel, Menachem Mendel, Shneur Zalman, and Yosef Yitzchak.
His Levaya took place on Chol Hamoed Pesach at Jüdischer Friedhof Heerstraße/Scholzplatz, the Jewish cemetery in Berlin. In attendance were family, community members and fellow Shluchim from around Germany. Kaddish recited by his children has shattered hearts of all those participating.
