HaRav Hillel Lieberman, zt"l
By Betzalel Kahn

Thousands were on hand to accompany the aron of HaRav Hillel Lieberman zt"l, one of the founders and molders of Jerusalem's Beis Yaakov schools, a leading figure in chareidi education for decades, the first director of Chinuch Atzmai in Eretz Yisroel and one of the first Agudas Yisroel representatives on the Jerusalem City Council, who passed away following a short illness at the age of 98.

He is survived by his son, HaRav Yeshayohu Lieberman, a prominent educator and director of the Merkaz Beis Yaakov ("Chadash") network of schools; four daughters, all reputable educators married to HaRav Aharon Neiman, HaRav Aryeh Weinberg, HaRav Zecharya Peller and HaRav Elchonon Fried; grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great- grandchildren (a fifth generation), all following in his path of Torah and yir'oh.

We plan to include further details next week.
