Comforting the Mourners in the Inner Sanctum for the Family of the Esteemed Rabbi Moshe Tzanani of Blessed Memory

Comforting the Mourners in the Inner Sanctum for the Family of the Esteemed Rabbi Moshe Tzanani of Blessed Memory
Two weeks after the passing of the distinguished student, the esteemed Rabbi Moshe Tzanani of blessed memory, we bring documentation of the comforting of the mourners by his eminent teacher, our teacher and master, Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, to the family during the shiva.

On one of the nights of the shiva, the family members of Rabbi Moshe Tzanani of blessed memory ascended to the inner sanctum to receive words of comfort from our teacher, the Rav shlit"a.
After the Tikkun Chatzot, our teacher, the Rav shlit"a, went out to the living room of his home and sat opposite the sons of Rabbi Tzanani. For about half an hour, he did not cease to eulogize and comfort after the passing of his greatest student.
At the beginning of his words, the Rav recounted the story of his closeness and the tremendous greatness of his faithful student's achievements. As is his holy custom, he seasoned his words with Torah teachings from all the treasures of the holy Torah.
At the conclusion of the comforting, the sons recited Kaddish after their great father, and our teacher, the Rav shlit"a, returned to his holy abode, saying, "May the Omnipresent comfort you among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem, and may you know no more sorrow."
