BDE: R’ Noach Tzvi Ullman, z”l
By: Boropark24 staff
We are saddened to inform you of the passing of R’ Noach
Tzvi (Henry) Ullman, z”l. He was in his eighties, and a lifelong Boro Park
resident.
He was born to his father, Rav Moshe Naftoli Ullman—a rov in
the Chevra Shas of Shomrei Emunah on Fourteenth Avenue—who brought his family
to Boro Park in 1939. The family hailed from generations of Rabbonim in
Belgium, and Hungary, and traced their roots to talmidim and successors of the
Chasam Sofer.
Noach Tzvi was named for his grandfather, the first rov of
the Machzikei Hadas Kehillah in Antwerp and the author of seforim.
In his youth, he was from the group of young men who formed
the Zeirei Agudas Yisroel minyan on Sixteenth Avenue, and was especially close
to their chosen rov, Rav Yisroel Perkovsky, zt”l. He remained a lifelong member
of the shul, serving as its ba’al korei
for decades.
R’ Noach Tzvi was close to many gedolim, and a repository of
stories and anecdotes about them, and the illustrious gedolim that they knew.
Being an extremely exact person, one always knew that the stories that he told
with his unique ‘geshmak’ were accurate and could be relied upon.
He leaves behind a beautiful Torah family, and a legacy of a child of Boro Park from the 1930’s who valiantly kept alive the traditions of his ancestors.
Watch Live the Levya R’ Noach Tzvi Ullman, z”l
