Osher Anshel Ha’Levy Jungreis-Menuchas Osher after whom he was named. He learned in the Yeshiva of R. Shimon Greenfeld (Ma’Harshag) in Semihai and later in Chust as a disciple of R. Dushinsky. He was particularly close to R. Chaim Elozor Schapiro of Munkacs -Minchas Elozor, with whom he spent much time in study.

Shlomo Jungreis of Vienna in 1974, with warm approbations of various great Hungarian Rabbonim who survived the Holocaust. These include R. Dovid Jungreis of the Eidah Ha’Chareidis, R. Moshe Teitelbaum of Satmar (Beirach Moshe), R, Bezalel Stern of Vienna (Be’Tzel Ha’Chochma) and R. Moshe Nosson Nota Lemberger of Makow- Kiryas Atta. With additional letter from R. Chaim Ber Greenfeld (legendary Gabbai of the Minchas Elozor) who writes how the author was like a beloved son to the Minchas Elozor.
According to the testimony of survivors he was tragically murdered on a “death march” by the Nazis a few days before liberation. Survivors related how even in the inhumane conditions of the Concentration camps he was constantly encouraging them to have faith, personally continued learning Torah and being stringent in Halacha even under the most excruciating circumstances.
