i personally searched for hours, i would like to know where they found him exactly and who found him and i they found his car also.
His car was found between 2 trees
Was it an accident? He was at the driver seat?

Thanks to the wonderful shomrim volunteers for coordinating the whole search and a special thanks to the search team Shmilu Follman Ari Weiss Moshe Riechberg Victor Brief sad to say this one did not end a happy one BDE
Mr. Steven! You have created a big big kidush hashem all over the world! You were for shure a big neshama!! And now you should remember us, We did for you, now you should do for us! Yidden are in the need of refuahs v’yshues……
These people in the parking lot are co-ordinators, which is necessary in such a situation. I don’t think they were sitting around twittling their thumbs.
I know exactly which coordinators were up planing all night and the ones involved etc, I’ve been involved from the beginning to end so please don’t start by telling me stories
this post is not about the volunteers. it is a bout a man who nebech was found dead and his family is suffering, so get over your egos and grow up .
#16 – ELECTION2010: I really hope you never go missing….These dedicated, devoted and holy people gave up their personal lives and were up for countless DAYS!! coordinating a search almost as intense as the Suri Feldman search. Were YOU there? Did YOU do anything? Shame on YOU!!!! for even considering criticism
shame on u for criticizing, they do a great job day in day out, since we are on this subject already as for the shomrim i think they can use new blood like ari weiss hes is a great leader
everyone who was out there deserves a big thank you …thank you….now lets get past this pettiness.
Fine everyone wants their kavod. From reading these blogs one might get the impression that people volunteer for their egos. If so, that’s the wrong reason. There is a dead man here. What were the circumstances, there are no details in the story.
