Yaakov Yitzchak was born in Boro Park to Rabbi Hershel and Breindel Grosinger. A few months ago got engaged and he was supposed to be married in a few weeks to the daughter of Rabbi Yoel Leibowitz, the son of the Admor of Nickolsburg-Monsey, who lost his son Rabbi Baruch Yehuda Lebowitz just two weeks ago.

Some family members claimed that Yaakov Yitzchak had not died of COVID-19 but rather from a rare infection which he had contracted.

The tragic death of Yaakov Yitzchak shocked all of his friends who described him as a young man full of joy and liveliness who was extremely attached to the Tziyun of Rabbi Yeshaya of Kerstir, where he would pray for hours and even spend Shabbos on occasion. They added that he always tried to help others with joy and always had a happy smile on his face.

In another tragic event in the US, 19-year-old yeshiva student Shlomo Sorotzkin of Lakewood passed away after battling illness for years. The details of the levayos will be released on Thursday morning.

Seems like he was a holy young man. His kallah must be devasted.

I will not comment about what was the cause of death (seemingly).

I do suggest that everyone have term life insurance. It is very cheap and can help take care of your family. I mean should get this as soon as he is married. Or, at least, as soon as he finds his wife is pregnant.

I strongly dislike whole life policies. I think they are not financially sound. Keep your insurance and investments separate.

A simple million dollar policy can be about $20 a month. This would help a greiving widow and lessen a burden on the community to help them.
