With great sadness, Matzav.com reports the petirah of Rav Nochum Pavlov zt”l at the age of 78.
A distinguished talmid chochom and devoted marbitz Torah, Rav Pavlov dedicated his life to building Torah and spreading Yiddishkeit in Eretz Yisroel.
Originally from Iowa, Rav Pavlov’s early years were marked by dedication to limud haTorah. In the 1960s, he learned in Skokie Yeshiva, where he developed into a serious ben Torah and laid the foundation for a life of avodas hakodesh.
He would eventually relocate to Eretz Yisroel, where he became a respected rov in the city of Ashkelon. There, he threw himself into kiruv rechokim and harbotzas haTorah. With warmth and dedication, Rav Pavlov impacted numerous people.
Tragically, while visiting America on behalf of his yeshiva, Rav Pavlov became ill and was niftar during his stay.
Yehi zichro boruch.
