Hi my name is Tehmina I used to work with Menachem at Drewry.l am so sad to hear about your loss I don’t have words to express myself May God help you to go through this tuff time with strength and patience Ameen
I have had the pleasure of being Menachem's teacher for a few years at Drewry Secondary School. Menachem's gentle sweet nature filled our classroom with joy every day. We all learned from Menachem to be methodical and complete each task well. In Room 604 Susan, Cecelia, Ade, and Sam all worked with Menachem and feel so fortunate to have spent many years with him. and with the Blaustein family. Most recently we we celebrated Menachem's graduation with the entire Blaustein family. We all know that he was so blessed to be surrounded by so much love and support. We are all sending you our heartfelt condolences and hope that his memory is a blessing to the Blaustein family.
Dear Risa + Family,
Menachem was my cousin, I had the pleasure of getting to know him during my time at Reena, and it was always a special day when I got paired up to spend a Sunday with sweet Menachem. I am heartbroken to hear about his passing. He had the sweetest smile and the sweetest soul, I hope he is dancing and singing in peace. I hope that you can reflect on your special memories and hold each other tight during this horrible time.
Dear Rabbi Moishe, Risa and Family,
I am so deeply saddened to hear the heartbreaking news about your beloved Menachem , and am sending my deepest condolences during this most difficult time. I will always treasure the special times we spent together at Zareinu at the beginning of your journey. May Menachem's memory be a blessing.
Dear Blaustein family, we are saddened to hear about your loss. We are so thankful we had the pleasure of getting to know Menachem through our time volunteering with Friendship Circle and we will cherish these memories forever. From doing puzzles, to reading books, to listening to music (specifically Uncle Moishy), he always had such a big smile on his face. May his memory be a blessing.
Hi my name is Jennifer Kochberg. I had the pleasure of supplying in Menacham's class over the years at Drewry. He always had a smile on his face for everyone. I have many fond memories of him over the years. He loved his Uncle Moishe pizza song, dancing along to the music.... reading 'Cat in the Hat ' over and over again...loved Dr. Zueus..he enjoyed doing his puzzles, eating his snacks, and chilling out on his favourite mat in 604. He loved colouring in art class with his collection of pencil crayons..and always asked to cut the papers after he coloured them. He liked to take walks and smile at everyone who passed by. I'm so very sorry for your devastating loss and wish the family peace for the difficult days ahead.
Oh! I am so sorry to hear about Menachem’s passing! How much times I had been together with him! I still remember the look he gave me when I went to Drewry to visit last year ! He remembers me, but because of the rules of Covid, I didn’t spend time with him! Again, I am so sorry for your family loss of him! May God blesses and gives you strength to get through this difficult time!🙏🙏
Dear neighbours,

Menachem was a Gutte Neshuma, he taught us to live with forgiveness and gratitude.
The world lost an amazing human being, but we are all richer for the memories that he has left us.

BDE. My deepest condolences. My heart breaks for you and I cannot begin to imagine your earth-shattering pain. My son Sam attends Drewry and he met Menachem last year. I loved seeing his sweet smile when he left school every day. I pray Hashem gives you strength and please know that there is a huge community sharing your pain and sorrow and we will do all that we can for you. May Menachem’s neshama have an Aliyah and May his memory be a blessing.
Dear Rabbi and Mrs Blaustein and family
I was so shocked and saddened to hear about your loss. I had the pleasure of driving Menachem home from Dani on several occasions. He was such a sweet young man and seemed so happy listening to music
Wishing you much strength at this difficult time. He will be missed. May his memory be for a blessing
To my dearest friends,
Your journey with Menachem taught us all so much.
Loving someone is easy when his essence is so evident.
Caring for them is a whole other story!
Throughout it ALL, Menachem was always viewed as a source of bracha!
Whata gift to hold onto the mindset through it all!
Thank you for teaching me what unconditional love really looks like.
Thank you Hashem for a glimpse of what a tayareh neshama is!
May all the wonderful memories of Menachem bring you all strength.
May we be zoche to the coming of משיח quickly in our days.
Love Susie Shapiro
