A memorial series, not a single speaker
Who We've Lost Since Corona is not a person and not a set of shiurim by one teacher. It is a tribute series — a collection built to remember the many rabbanim, teachers, and community members whose lives ended during the COVID-19 era, a period that took a painful toll on Jewish communities.
Understanding that changes how you approach it. There is no "teaching style" to describe, because the subject is not a lecturer but a communal act of remembrance. Each entry turns toward a life that was lost, gathering the story, the impact, and the loss into something a community can hold onto together.
Honoring lives and legacies
In the Jewish tradition, remembering the departed is itself an act of respect and love. A tribute preserves what a person built — their Torah, their kindness, the people they raised and taught — so that the loss does not erase the legacy but sharpens it.
A series like this serves a grieving community by giving names and faces their due. It records what might otherwise slip away: the quiet accomplishments, the character, the influence that rippled outward. In doing so, it lets those who were taken continue to teach through the example of how they lived.
Why remembering matters
Honoring the memory of the departed is woven deep into Jewish life, from the words we say at a levaya to the way we retell the stories of those we admired. Remembering is not only comfort for the bereaved; it is guidance for the living, holding up examples worth following.
For a community still carrying the weight of the pandemic years, a series that gathers these tributes offers both mourning and meaning. It says that each life counted, that none should be forgotten, and that the best response to loss is to learn from — and live up to — the people we lost.
