HARAV WEISS TO NICHOLS WINTON

The head of the Eida HaCharedis in Yerushalayim, HaRav Yitzchak Tuvia Weiss, also known as the Gavad (Gaon Av Bais Din) wrote a letter to family of Sir Nicholas Winton.
Sir Winton recently passed away at the age of 106 and made the news because he organized the rescue of 669 children destined for Nazi concentration camps.

Rav Weiss wrote this letter to let his family know what a profound effect Sir Winton had on his life and how grateful he is to him for having rescued him. The letter is transcribed below, followed by an image of the original:
