Mrs. Yocheved Lider a"h passed away Monday morning in her home. In the afternoon her husband, Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac Lider a”h passed away in the hospital. They were buried next to each other on the same day.
Early Monday the important woman Mrs. Yocheved Lider a"h of Jerusalem passed away suddenly. Her father was the great educator Rabbi Chaim Yehuda Yaakovson z’l, and she was born in 5693 (1933) in the Shaarei Chesed neighborhood of Jerusalem.
People spoke about her good heart even in her youth, and the many deeds of kindness she did, and her constant concern for others. Day and night she always thought how to benefit those around her. Monday morning at 12:00 many people accompanied her to her final resting place at Har Menuchot.
Even before the funeral of the mother, the family members were called to their father's bed, the head of the family, the chassid Rabbi Yitzchak Isaac Lider, who was recently hospitalized in serious condition at Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem. At the time of the funeral the family remained at his bedside.
Immediately upon completion of the burial, the children and grandchildren went on a bus taking them to Shaare Tedek, where they said the verses of Yichud. When they finished the verses of Shema Yisrael, the widowed head of the family returned his soul to the Creator.
The deceased a”h was born in Tiberias in 5690 (1930) to Rabbi Mordechai Lider a"h. He was a disciple of Harav Hakadosh Rabbi Mordechai Chaim Slonim ztz"l, and was also very close to and absolutely submissive to the holy Admor, author of the Birchas Avraham and Nachal Eitan of Slonim, ztz”l; after his passing he was close to the holy Admor of Slonim shlita.
