Yahrtzeit at Gravesite of Ohel Moshe in Hungary
by Yated Ne'eman Staff
A large gathering was held at the Ohel Moshe shul in Makava,
Hungary to mark the 64th yahrtzeit of the Ohel Moshe, the
Admor of Makava and the surrounding area, and one of the
great rabbonim in Hungary during the previous generation.
The tefilloh was held in the cemetery on the day of
the yahrtzeit, followed by a special uplifting Shabbos in the
new guest facility built by the International Organization of
Makava to accommodate visitors who come to pray at the
gravesites. The building features a mikveh, a large event
hall, study rooms, a Torah library, a well-furnished kitchen
and dozens of rooms for lodging.
The Shabbos tefillos were held at the old beis
medrash, which was renovated at the initiative of R'
Dovid Margolis, chairman of the International Organization of
Makava headed by the gavad of Makava, along with his
brothers, who serve as rabbonim. They delivered divrei
Torah and divrei chizuk in memory of their
grandfather, the Ohel Moshe zy"o.
Every year many visitors arrive at the gravesite to pray.
"Those who come to my grave and weep with free-flowing tears
that they want to do teshuvoh will certainly receive
my help," reads his will, which is printed in his book
Ohel Moshe. "And all those who carry out any act to
rectify my soul, I promise they won't leave This World
without doing teshuvoh shleimoh."
