About Zevi
When my kids sat down to decide what they wanted to do for Zevi’s yartzheit this year there was a unanimous response, “We want to do a Mitzvah Campaign in his honor.” We want to do something that Zevi would be proud of and could live on. There is no maximum dosage of doing kindness or mitzvahs for others.
Zevi was someone who defied logic. Battling with cancer for over six years he continued to have the world’s best attitude. At his Seudas Hodaa (Meal of Thanks) after he went through one of his many surgeries, his motto and table decor was based on the concept of, “Tracht Gut Vet Zein Gut – Think Good and it will Be Good.”
His emunah in Hashem was unparalleled. Even though he knew his cancer wasn’t gone after this surgery, he chose to continue with the Seudas Hodaa to thank Hashem for all the miracles and blessings that he had received so far. Everyday, no matter how challenging the day was, he davened and put on tefillin. If he couldn’t put them on himself he asked others. (Baruch Hashem, little did I know that my training would be helpful years later as I tried to help the boys do the same.) After a grueling 22 hour surgery where, unfortunately, many things did not go the way we would have liked he still put on tefillin! He never missed a day.
When visitors came to do the mitzvah of visiting the sick he always had a smile on his face and welcomed them. We held an almost weekly Thursday night Farbregen at our house and of course hand-grated potato kugel was served; nothing but the best for his friends.
The blood drive which was one of his “babies”, was something he did to help others have an opportunity at life. Despite the many challenges he faced, his goal remained to do mitzvahs and bring down a spark of G-dliness into this world to bring us closer to the arrival of Moshiach.
So on behalf of myself and my kids we are asking you all a favor.
Please join us and dedicate a mitzvah in memory of Zevi Silver a”h whose 5th yartzheit is on the 22nd of Sivan. Please spread this and ask your friends and family to join in as well. Nothing can possibly give his Neshama a greater purpose and elevation than our doing many mitzvahs in his memory.
