Reb Yosef Nimotin, son of the chassid Reb Shmuel Nimotin, lived in Alma Ata, Kazakhstan during World War II and was involved in saving lives. He merited to serve and care for the mekubal Reb Levi Yitzchak Schneerson and Rebbetzin Chana Schneerson, the Rebbe's parents. During the 'Great Escape from Russia' in 1946, he entrusted to R' Simcha Gorodetzky the shofar used by the Rebbe's father, which was inherited from the Tzemach Tzedek, to be delivered to the Rebbe. R' Nimotin remained in the Soviet Union until 1979 and maintained R' Levi Yitzchak's holy gravesite, ensuring its cleanliness and upkeep. After leaving Russia, he settled in Crown Heights and received special attention from the Rebbe due to his closeness and assistance to his father.
