Shortly after, in 1956, I came to New York Ito learn at Yeshiva Torah Vodaas School. At that time, it was one of the biggest yeshivas in the world, and certainly the biggest yeshiva in North America with over two thousand students from grade one up until the highest level of Bais Midrash . It was situated in Williamsburg, Brooklyn — which was a big change from Montreal, let me tell you. I stayed at Torah Vodaas for two years and then I moved to the Lubavitch Yeshiva. But while I was still at Torah Vodaas, I heard the following story about the Frierdiker Rebbe , the Previous Rebbe of Lubavitch, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn. The occasion was the anniversary of the passing of a previous head of the yeshiva, Rabbi Shlomo Hyman, which was always observed with a major address to the of money to the bank, and the bank called in the loan. entire student body.

  • Rav Aharon Yeshaya Shapiro Zt"L (1907-1981) Rav Aharon Yeshya Shapiro Was Born in Pinsk on Chanukah, 5677 (1907), to His Parents Reb Yaakov Yitzchok1 and Chaya
    Rav Aharon Yeshaya Shapiro zt"l (1907-1981) Rav Aharon Yeshya Shapiro was born in Pinsk on Chanukah, 5677 (1907), to his parents Reb Yaakov Yitzchok1 and Chaya. The family were Chasidim of Karlin-Stolin, and his childhood was steeped in this tradition. Every Shabbos, young Aharon Yeshaya and his father would walk with a neighbor, Reb Nachman Shteierman2 and his son Yisroel, from their courtyard in Pinsk to the Karliner Rebbe’s tish in the Shul in Karlin. [This neighbor, Yisroel Shteierman, became a mechutan later in America.] Rav Aharon Yeshaya merited to see the Stoliner Rebbe Reb Yisroel zt”l, known as the Yanuka, and remembered him well. After WW II, Rav Aharon Yeshaya was instrumental in assisting the Stoliner Rebbe, Rav Yochonon zt”l in replacing of the Matzeiva on the Kever of Rav Yisroel in Frankfurt. Rav Aharon Yeshaya was educated in the local yeshivos, and around the age of fifteen, wth the encouragement of the Rav of Pinsk, Rav Aharon Walkin (author of the Bais Aharon on Shas), he entered the yeshiva of Mir. 3 During Bein HaZemanim, when he returned home, he would speak in learning with the Karliner Rebbe, Reb Avrohom Elimelech zt”l, Hy”d. Although he was young compared to other bachurim in the yeshiva, he soon gained a reputation as a budding Talmid Chachom, and was paired up with the likes of Rav Chaim Shmuelewitz as a chavrusa, with whom he learned Masechta Chulin. He was close to the Rav of Mir, Rav Hirsh Kamai Hy"d and Rav Leizer Yudel Finkel, and received Semicha from them.
