The Rebbe Raised Me Like a Son
Mendel was just seven years old when his father suddenly passed away, leaving behind four orphans. The Rebbe took a unique interest in the Scharf children, showering them with attention, love, and paternal concern – which we can all learn from. Watch Rabbi Scharf share his story, and the lessons and inspiration he continues to carry with him more than 30 years later.

Beautiful and powerful message. What an extraordinary experience and privilege to have been so close to the Rebbe, of blessed memory. I must say remembering your story, the moments you described so vividly has stayed with me. I have kinda borrowed some of them to fill in, or should I say, enrich moments in my own memory. Thank you for sharing.
