Leading rabbis and community leaders from the Breslov Hasidic movement gathered for a "Shiva Brachot" celebration honoring Avigdor Greenwald, the son of the late community activist Rabbi Duki Greenwald. Rabbi Duki Greenwald passed away approximately one month prior to the wedding, leaving his son without both parents to accompany him to the chuppah.
