Great Leaders of our People

We Mourn...Listen to hespedim for Rabbi Steven M. Dworken
(provided by YU/RIETS).
The Orthodox Union and its constituent synagogues are deeply saddened by the sudden and tragic passing of Rabbi Steven M. Dworken, Executive Vice President of the Rabbinical Council of America. His commitment to the cause of Torah leaves an indelible mark on the heart and soul of the American rabbinate. We will sorely miss his staunch friendship and personal warmth. We extend condolences to his widow, Dr. Susan Dworken, to his family, and to the membership of the R.C.A., to whom he provided exemplary leadership. May they be comforted together with all who mourn Zion and Jerusalem. For Shiva information, please visit the RCA website or call the Department of Community and Synagogue Services of the OU at 212-613-8126.
