hillulah of Rav Meir Yehudah Getz

Today is the 11th yartzheit of Rav Meir Yehudah Getz. [wikipedia entry in hebrew] He rebuilt Yeshivat HaMekubalim Bet El (as mentioned in the Ben Ish Hai, once under the leadership of the Holy Rashash) in the old city of Yerushalayim. [wikipedia entry in hebrew]

To me he was most important as the Rav of my Rav; but my parents met him one misty Shabbat night in Tsfat long before I was born.
