I remember buying books at his shop in Rockaway, and how generous he was; I was short of money one day, and he let me buy The Tattoist of Auschwitz for my son on credit, trusting me to return next week with the money. A true mensch! Baruch Dayan Ha’emes.
Is he related to the Maggid shiur in mir Flatbush rav Herschel kaminsky
A big loss for our family. His presence and wisdom will be sorely missed.
