Rabbi Mordechai/Mottel Katz ZT”L

R’ Mordechai/Mottel Katz ZT”L served as Rav of Khal Avereichai Torah V’Daas in Brooklyn, NY.

He wore it on his Tallis Gadol during the last few years of his life and close to 3 decades on his Tallis Kattan.

From BoroPark24:

“[Rav Mottel Katz] was the son of Rav Aaron Aryeh Katz who was a rov in Khal Beis Aron in Flatbush, and he gave shiurim there for many years. His mother was the daughter of Rav Elozor Twersky, the Faltishaner Rebbe of Boro Park.

Rav Katz was known for his nobility and his chessed, in addition to his being a great talmid chochom and marbitz Torah. He was also known as a special ba’al tefillah, ba’al tokei’ah, and was always an address for people to unburden themselves and walk away with a lighter heart.”
