The Satmar Rebbes' Gabbai: Rabbi Azriel Glick zt"l passes away at the age of 88

May 19, 2014   

Baruch Dayan, the truth teller: Rabbi Azriel Glick, a resident of Kiryat Yoel in Monroe, passed away at the age of 88 in a New York hospital. He served for 100 years as a minister of the Satmar Rebbes. The late Rabbi began his work with the Rebbe, Rabbi Yoel, author of Divrei Yoel, and in 1979 he began his work with the author of Habraetz Moshe, and later with Yavdelhat, the Rebbe of Satmar. He dedicated every moment of his life to the Rebbe, whom he served twenty-four hours a day. The Rebbe trusted his loyalty and honesty, and his mouth would produce pearls when he spoke at every gathering of Satmar Hasidim. About a month ago, he collapsed and was taken to the hospital. His funeral will be held from the Satmar Beit Midrash on Radney Street, and he will be buried in the new cemetery in Monroe.
