Rabbi Meshulam Dovid Soloveitchik attends an event in Jerusalem on August 10, 2020.
Thousands were thrown into mourning earlier this week with news of the passing of Rav Meshulam Dovid Soloveitchik, the last remaining son of the Brisker Rav, R’ Velvel Soloveitchik, at the age of 99.
Rav Dovid â who is my great uncle â is survived by his wife, Rebbitzen Judy, sister of Rav Moshe Sternbuch; two sons; and a daughter. His
levaya on Sunday morning, attended by tens of thousands, began from his home; passed by Yeshivas Brisk, which he led; and then continued on to his final resting place on Har Hamenuchos, where he was buried next to his late father.
