| Rabbi Moshe Elye Gerlitzky, who fled from the advancing Nazi armies of war-torn Europe to find refuge in Canada and establish a Jewish educational network on the country’s Atlantic coast, passed away April 4 at the age of 94. One of the thousands of Holocaust survivors saved by the selfless acts of Japanese Consul Chiune Sugihara, Gerlitzky was the city of Montreal’s first full-time Jewish day-school teacher and, later in life, the oldest Chabad-Lubavitch emissary. |
