I am so, so sorry to hear the news. I'm thinking of you and wishing I was closerby to give my support in person.

love,

To Aliyah and the Cheskis-Cotel family,
Our sincere condolences on the loss of your beloved Moshe.

I knew Rabbi Cotel when he was a part time rabbi for Congregation Beth David in Amenia NY.

He always loved nature and enjoyed passing by the horse farms near our home which he found so beautiful and tranquil

My condolences to his family on his sudden passing
