Baruch Dayan, the truth teller: At the Shaarei Tzedek Medical Center in Jerusalem, Rabbi Avraham Shor, a resident of the Sanhedria neighborhood in Jerusalem and an elder and prominent Pittsburgh Hasidic, passed away on Saturday night at the age of 92 after a serious illness.
The late Rabbi Zt"l was born in Manchester, England, to his father, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Shor, and immigrated to the Holy Land about 60 years ago, settling in Bnei Brak, where he lived for decades, until he moved to live near his children in the expanded Sanhedria neighborhood in Jerusalem.
The Pittsburgh Hasidic community said that the deceased "was connected in heart and soul to our holy brothers, Zia"a, and to the Rebbe, Shlita.".
