The passing of Mrs. Rochel Reinitz, a revered matriarch of the Chabad community in Yerushalayim, Israel, has left a profound impact on her family and the wider Jewish diaspora. Born into a Chabad family, she was a pillar of strength and wisdom, embodying the values of her faith. Her husband, Rabbi Boruch Tzvi Reinitz, was a respected Chabad Chossid in the Mea Shearim neighborhood, known for his dedication to the community. Together, they were a source of inspiration and guidance for many.
In their later years, the Reinitz family relocated to Beit Shemesh, where they continued to contribute to the local Jewish community. Mrs. Reinitz was a role model for her children, who have carried on her legacy with honor. Among her descendants are Shluchim, individuals who embody the spirit of Chabad and serve as ambassadors of Jewish culture and faith.
Mrs. Reinitz is survived by her children, each of whom has made significant contributions to the Jewish community. Yossie Reinitz resides in Toronto, Aron Reinitz in Israel, Yonason Reinitz in New Haven, CT, Rivka Spielman in Crown Heights, Tzippy Simon in Crown Heights, Levi Reinitz in Tzfas, Israel, and Ayala Cohen in Tel Tzion, Israel. The family has come together to mourn and celebrate her life, with a Levaya taking place in Jerusalem.
For those wishing to pay their respects, Mr. Yossie Reinitz is sitting Shiva at 32 Lisa Crescent, Vaughn, Toronto, Ontario. Mrs. Rivka Spielman and Mrs. Tzippy Simon will be sitting Shiva in Crown Heights on Monday, with specific times and locations provided for those who wish to attend. The family invites everyone to join them in remembering Mrs. Reinitz's life and legacy, ensuring that her spirit lives on through the generations.
