When my family and I moved to Crown Heights from Minnesota 22 years ago, one of my first concerns was to find a mashpia. A good mashpia should not only know Chassidus but also live Chassidus and be a shining example by the way he lives. You can identify him more from his personality than from his intellect. And there’s one more thing. As Rabbi Moshe Feller (my mashpia in Minnesota) said, the mashpia should be someone who cares.
His accomplishments for Yiddishkeit are legendary. His hiskashrus to the Rebbe knew no bounds. His love of Torah and Mesiras Nefesh for the honor of Chassidus and the Jewish people are famous. * Presented for the first Yarzheit of HaRav HaChassid Reb Avraham Dov Hecht
