Very sad, he will be missed.
Pinto always could make someone smile, see the good in the situation. Change the thick air to a lighter one.
He will be missed.
His legacy of kindness will carry on,
the bochurim he took care of will carry on how he made them feel home in 770.
He changed his life over. How hard can that be? He was always trying to be better.
May he rest in peace and continue to look after us.
