It is with a broken heart that I share the passing of my dear father and teacher, Rabbi Yisroel Rubin - R’ Yisrael Eliezer ben R’ Moshe - longtime emissary of the Rebbe to Albany and Head Emissary of Chabad of the Capital Region and Northeast New York.
My father passed away in his sleep on Friday night, the night of Shemini Atzeret, at the age of 78.
Just hours earlier, he had been in Shul for Hakafot, dancing with the Torah, surrounded by people whom he loved and who loved him.
This Sukkot marked exactly 52 years since my parents first arrived in Albany as the Rebbe’s emissaries. From those beginnings grew Maimonides Hebrew Day School, which he founded in 1980, as well as a network of Chabad centers and emissaries throughout the Capital Region and Northeast New York.
There is so much more to say about my father - as a Rabbi and teacher, as an emissary, and, for me, as a father and mentor.
For now, we simply share this painful news with our Clifton Park Chabad family.
The graveside funeral will take place today in Albany, the city to which he devoted his life, at 3:45 PM at the Beth Abraham-Jacob Cemetery on Fuller Road.
Shiva information will be forthcoming.
Baruch Dayan HaEmet.
