Why isn't Chaim Itkin's Yahrzeit Exact?

We do not know the exact date of death of Chaim Itkin. According to Jewish tradition, if the exact date of death is not known, the yahrzeit of a person can be observed on any day, as long as it is that same day every year. Since that is the case, we observe the yahrzeit of Chaim Itkin on 18 Elul. If you know the exact date of death of Chaim Itkin, contact us via the contact page.
