A prominent Rabbi of Hungary, the author was a prolific author and editor of the popular Torah journal Vayelaket Yoseph. On the verso of the front cover here, he discusses the issue whether it is permitted to deliver a eulogy within thirty days of Sukoth, concluding that for a sage of the depth of the Chofetz Chaim, there is no question. Not only is it permitted but incumbent.
