Boruch Dayan Emes to a true Ba'al Chesed.
He epitomized the concept of Sefivng hashem wiht joy and did everyhtign in his power to help others live their lives that way.
He will be sorely missed.

I have heard a bit about this man, that he was a real tzaddik. I would love to hear more.

Years ago R. Shimson OBM wrote articles on important topics for the N'Shei Newsletter. He was humorous and on the mark at the same time. It would be great if they could reprint or make reprints available.

He helped more than 150 weekly with money for groceries. He helped a friend of mine get a new sheitel when she seperated from her husband. He tried to help get my husband a better job. He helped so many people. He will be very missed by many people. I really liked speaking to him. He was honest and sometimes a bit harsh but very kind. I had tears in my eyes when I heard about his passing. The world will not be the same without him here.

I always so enjoyed his sensible approach to frum issues and I hope that someone will publish a book of his wisdom and tell the stories of his organization CSSY. I strongly feel that those such as Reb Shimon OBM, who contributed so much to Yiddishkeit should not be forgotten. I hope that more people will tell their stories here such as the one that the above amother told.
I remember my children telling me how he would raise money by stationing himself at the line by the Ohel and calling out, " take your money out of your wallets, remove a dollar, put the dollar back in your wallets and give the rest to CSSY!"

I recently spoke with him and he corrected me if I refered to him as rabbi. He said hes not a rabbi. I still can't believe he is gone. I was about to call him this week.

He was a dear friend of my parents who was a true Tzadik. For years my parents haven't been giving MM. They give a nice check to Shimshon for CSSY & give their friends who come over, a poem saying this. This year they put a note asking people to give too in his zchus.

He was seriously ill with diabetes and he and his wife both had heart attacks on the same day, the day they were going to be honored at Lub. Yeshiva's dinner. His wife was released quickly while he, with diabetes was in much worse shape. This is what I heard. Not promising it's accurate.
I also liked his column in the N'Shei Chabad Newsletter years ago. Practical advice about marriage, the misery of divorce, warned against credit card debt.
