Feter Lebeil OBM; The Malochim of the people you pulled out of Russia are waiting to greet you
Fete Leibel; you were the last of Zaide Shlome Shimanovitz’ son- in law. An epoch has ended.

You will be missed

We then went on to talk particularly about Fetter Leibe what a LEIB he was, at the very young age of 20. How many people he took out of the Meyztorim. How many Maasim Tovim Fetter Leibe did.
