I knew Mr. Goldstien. He was an Emes Yid. He was a kind, and gentle person, and a true Baal Middos. May his Neshomah be Malitz Yosher for all of Klal Yisroel. May his family be comforted from among the mourners of Tzion and Yerushalayim.

You are a lunatic. At the time of this tragedy, don't post messages blaming "the car" for an accident resulting from the people driving them. It makes no sense to tell yiddin "to walk in today's world where we don't have that option. It may be good exercise but that irrelevant. Hahshem yerachm the family and remind us of the importance of focusing on what we are doing to keep us safe.

You did not understand what I wrote. If you need to go somewhere local it is better to walk. Go comment on another website with your foolish comments. May his neshama reach the height of Yaakov Avinu.

you are obviously not an intelligent individual. cars are a neccessity here in america especially in the community of baltimore where the public transportation system is not safe and walking around there is not so safe. we need cars for a million different reasons. may Hashem place more brains in your head because obviously the ones in yours is not enough or your not using it

If you read the article, you would know that the accident occurred on an interstate. Go back to Sheppard Pratt-you looney!

I knew Reb Arthur Goldstein 30 years ago and he was a very friendly and tiere yid. He will be missed. I remember how he always had a smile on his face and enjoyed life. A most unspeakable tragedy for the family. Unspeakable.

Do you happen to know if his father's name was Harry and he was niftar a couple years ago? I have a cousin Frances Goldstein who lives in Siver Spring but never knew her children or that she had a frum son. If so, please let me know how I can get in touch with his children.
Thank you,

Azoy...we should leave our cars at home and rather than driving in our well maintained personal cars, we should call the taxi service and have some semi-literate from some third world country drive us to work and home in a 10 year old taxicab with 300,000 miles on the odometer.

"why do we beni yeshivos have to drive old beat up cars"
The lavayah has not yet been held and the regular whiners are here already blaming the niftar for driving an old car...you have no brains and no rachmonis for the family and friends who might be reading VIN

oy vai!! I cry reading these comments R Avrohom was a chaver of mine .His Davening was with such a Tmimus, He always took his time and did things Bsimcha.
I hope we can all learn a lesson from R Avrohom ,even years when it was extremely extremelly hard for him to walk far distances he would go out on the Yomim Toivim and do Mivtzoim bringing the Mitzvos of the Yom Tov to jews that would not be involved on their own.This took alot of physicall strength from him and he still went out to do this.We can all learn and take a lesson from R Avrohom going in his way to bring Yidishkeit to others around us ,and be Mkarev biyas Moshiach ,
Mordy you should only see all good ,
