Viznitz: Will the widower marry his young sister in law?

Will the younger sister of Mrs. Chaya Feige a"h, granddaughter of the Vizhnitz and Vizhnitz Monsey Rebbes, marry her brother in law – the widower Rabbi Yochanan Hagar at the end of the shloshim?

Judging by the wind blowing in the halls of the house of mourners, this option is quite practical, even if not yet decided whether it will happen as early as the shloshim or to wait a bit.

Already after learning about the death of her sister, the 17.5 year old sister expressed her desire to gain guardianship over the baby who was born and adopt the infant as her own daughter. Accordance with this request, the family offered the girl's mother, Rebbetzin Schneebalg, the wife of Rabbi Yisrael, the proposed match, and is being considered favorably. Although of course it was not finalized, the opinions of both parties involved.

The reason to call the name of the infant Margalia - and not the name of the birth mother, lies in the tragedy that occurred in the family. The deceased a"h was named after her grandmother, Rebbetzin Feige Schneebalg a"h, wife of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneebalg Shiblht"a, Av Beit Din of Manchester.

It was at the birth of the son of Rebbetzin Feige, Rabbi Moshe Schneebalg of Tchernowitz, grandfather of the late Mrs. Chaya Feige Hagar a"h. Because the rabbi's wife died from complications at birth, her grandson Rabbi Yisrael, didn’t want to give his daughter was born 19 years ago, the name Feige, only, and added the name: Chaya.

Now, with dismay, Mrs. Chaya Feige also died from complications after giving birth, it was decided not to give this name to a baby, not even combined with other names. Margalia was the name given to her, in respect of the yartzeit of the great-grandmother Rebbetzin Margalia a"h, wife of the Imrei Chaim of Vizhnitz zt"l, whose yartzeit occurred today, as has already been reported in B'Chadrei Charedim.
Yesterday an awakening rally took place at the Torah Chaim Vizhnitz Beit Midrash in Borough Park, neighborhood of residence of the deceased.

A similar rally will take place in Monsey for women, following the tragedy as was published in B'Chadrei Charedim. The Rebbe ordered a few weeks ago that women should make sure to daven shacharis every morning, at least from Baruch Sheamar until Shomnei Esrei.

Now the Rebbe asked to reinforce his order prior to the rally.
