R’ Moshe Brown, a member of the Lubavitch community in Massachusetts, has passed away on Friday, Nissan 7, 5772.
He was 79.
A draftsman, Brown was known for always being available to help many local Jews. He was a regular at Chabad in Sharon, Brookline and in recent years Longmeadow, where his daughter Rochel Leah Kosofsky is the Shlucha.
Some 250 people, many of them Chabad Shluchim, attended his funeral which took place on Friday at the Lubavitz Cemetary, 776 Baker St., West Roxbury, MA.
The family will sit shiva at the home of his daughter, 795 Converse St., Longmeadow, MA. (Parking is permitted on the street). Nichumim can be sent to [email protected], or 413-754-3663.
Moshe was one of the early Anash in Boston who led a Chassidishe life and set an example for others. He was an ish hachessed and helped the Rebbe’s mosdos grow in Boston and around the whole state. He was a very dear man and will be missed by many.
A Local Shliach
Moshe was my first cousin. He was a few months younger than me. I attended his Bar Mitzvah on Labor Day Weekend, 1945, in Dorchester, MA. I always regarded Moshe as a very special person. He always had a very high level of itellectual honesty and personal integrity.
I am very proud that Moshe became a distinguished member of the Lubavitch community in Massachusetts.

great man
I am saddened by the passing of Reb Moshe. Having lived in Boston for a few years, I got to know him as a special person. He was a faithful member of the Lubavitch Shul in Brighton and participated in many Chabad activities there. We used to walk home from shul on Friday night together with Mr. Shlomo Leib Litvin alov hasholom. May his family be comforted from the loss of such a mench.
