So So Sorry
May 27, 2014 11:33 pm

To the Nemon family:
I am so sorry to hear about this!
I can’ t image what you are feeling, and how you can go through this, but know that we are with you. Do not Despair, because Hashem is here. May Hashem Comfort You and Your Family Among The Rest Of The Mourners Of Tzion and Yerushalayim. Very soon you will be reunited with your precious Levi with the coming of Moshiach.

May 22, 2014 6:14 pm

What kept me going was a letter from the Rebbe to someone who lost a child telling them that by them being happy that makes their child neshomo happy. SInce i read that letter i try to be as happy as i can , and when i am not i ask my son’s neshama to forgive me

Dear parents of little Yisrael may he rest in peace
We don’t know each other but I want you to know that my older children and my husband and myself send you our love, that life has changed for you and we wish that you have support from all the people in the community. This is somthing that is so hard, so awful that there are no words really. Our hearts are with you, our feelings and our love to you.

Being that you wrote, how comment #28 brought you a little comfort.I wanted to share with you the end of the story. The Besht told the parents to work and do Mitzvos with childrren. Two years later they had another child.

The child grew up to be the famous Aaron of Karlin.
May you only know of Simchos from now on.
Know that all of us,are with you,and feel your pain,Moshiach now.

Thank you for all your prayers, tears, and kind words during this most difficult of times.

And may we soon see our beloved Yisroel Levi Yitzchok O.B.M. (hamechune/AKA “Teddy” and “Lova”) by the Geula HaAmitis wth Moshiach Tzidkeinu.

If only this would be taken on as sincerely and seriously as needed… The additional untold pain, sadness, and shfichus damim caused in our communities with a word, some comment, or the passing of judgement and damaging acts by even friends and FAMILY during most trying times…. We must remember that the Ribono Shel Olam – the true Judge sees through it all and by him every tiny word and act is seen for what it really is. Surely this beautiful child fulfilled his tafkid and is with all the tzaddikim, but the Rebbe cried – “V’HaChai Yiten El Libo”… Read more »

Please be sensitive.
I’m sure you meant well, however, there is a time and place for everything. If we were all more caring about each other, maybe we would be zoche to the Geulah NOW!
Yes, Hashem is the borei olam and the one in command – but no one wants to lose a child.
I do agree with you that comments such as “oy vey” are insensitive as well and do not help. Comments such as #6 and #28 with stories from our Rabbeim, do offer [a tiny degree of] comfort.

Dear Parents and family of Yisrael Levi Yitzchok,
There are no words that can take away this tragic nightmare that you are going through. Your son obviously fulfilled his tafkid and you as his parents must be very special to have been chosen as such. However, the pain is beyond belief!! May Hashem comfort you and give you the strength needed to continue on and may you only know simcha.

Your tzaddik will help bring moshiach and Hashem will help you stay strong for your other children. It is not your fault. I am sure you know how special this child was. I love you and look forward to celebrating your reuniting with your tzaddik – I am sure his neshama accomplished something so very big on behalf of all of klal yisrael.

When I saw this announcement, my heart dropped. When I see OBM next ti the age of 21 months, and the notice for a levaya for a boy not even two years old, it doesn’t seem natural. Yet it leaves an impact. This young child, and all the horrible, unnatural tragedies we’ve faced this year, left so much good in the world. All the hachlatos, and tefillos will not be in vain. Soon, very soon, Moshiach will come in merit of all this. The family should only have simchos from now on. BDE

For all those who mentioned wanting to do something l’ilui his neshama, please use this opportunity to do your part in stopping the slander in the community, slander about a divorced person, about a single woman you see walking down the street, about anyone who does well in business, or about anyone who seems vulnerable.

There are really no words to take away the pain and comfort the parents, but here is a story… A couple was in Yechidus with the Baal Shem Tov and refused to leave until he gave them a Bracha for a child. The Rebbe benched them and 9 months later they had a healthy baby boy. When the boy was 2 and weaned they brought him back to the Rebbe for a bracha. The Rebbe was silent and gave the boy a kiss on the forehead. That evening the boy developed a high fever and died that night. The distraught… Read more »
