The groom, Rabbi Yechezkel Shraga Halberstam, later served as ab”d of Dukla. He was murdered by the Nazis in his home along with his entire family in 1942 and merited a proper Jewish burial.
Rabbi Menachem Mendel Halberstam was a prominent rabbi who was admired by the leading rabbis of his time. In his humility, he refused to serve as an admor. He married his first cousin with the blessing of his grandfather, the Divrei Yechezkel of Shinowa. He served as a rabbi in Dukla and Frysztak. His son was the Admor Rabbi Chana of Kolshitz.
