“Having the Rav move from Monsey to Manchester is a loss, but it’s their right"
With the passing of Rav Menachem Mendel Schneebalg, the Ga’avad of Manchester, it is this son who has been appointed as successor, crowned as the new Ga’avad of Manchester.
As a veteran Monsey resident and longtime admirer of Rav Schneebalg says, “Having the Rav move from Monsey to Manchester is a loss, but it’s their right. True, Monsey will have other poskim for daled minim, but what we will miss is not just the way the Rav says ‘beautiful,’ but the way he smiles and makes you feel when he says it.”
