We regret to inform you of the passing of Mrs. Rivka Schwartz, a”h, a matriarch and ba’alas chessed, and longtime Boro Park resident. She was 58 years of age, and had struggled for years with illness. 

The nifteres, along with her husband, ybl”ch, R’ Yaakov Volf Schwartz, were part of the Viznitz-Boro Park chassidus. She was the daughter of Reb Yitzchok Orenstein z"l.

She leaves behind a beautiful Torah family, and a legacy of accepting her lot with dignity and strength. 

The levaya will take place at the Viznitzer Beis Medrash on 53rd Street at 6:00 this evening, and later at the Monsey Beis Hachaim. 

Yehi zichra baruch.
