Boruch and his staff were the first honest mechanics I had ever encountered. He always went above and beyond to check in on how I was doing. The small talk always felt genuine. When I was in a bind he always went above and beyond to get my car back to me quickly and at a reasonable price. I felt valued, and I felt like my concerns were taken seriously (and so many women will agree with me that we normally do not feel seen or heard or taken seriously at the mechanic)! He was one of the first people I told when I was moving from Cleveland to NYC. He always showed so much compassion and concern in my educational and career journey. I will always remember him!

I am a New Yorker who has never been to the state of Ohio. I never met Boruch, but I have read the comments that others have left and watched his service recorded at the shul. I couldn't help but cry. Even in the face of a desperate situation in that plane there was a calmness about him as he interacted with air traffic control. Perhaps it was his deep faith in G-D. To his family I extend my deepest condolences. I am so sorry for your loss. I shall make a contribution to my synagogue in his memory.

Buroch (as well as his business, Masterworks Automotive) was a client of mine, and he will be sorely missed. He was the consummate professional, and was always a pleasure to do business with. He greatly contributed to my business relationships with the community, and his business referrals have been invaluable. I am SO, SO sorry to hear of the loss of him, and his friend. Please accept my DEEPEST condolences.

I am devastated to learn of Mr. Taub's passing.  He was such a kind and generous man and he helped me so much when I had car troubles. I knew I could count on him and he never let my kids or me down.
 I send my deepest sympathies to his family and loved ones. I'm so very sorry for your loss. He was such a gift to the world.  

In A Very Trying time in my Life, Boruch gave me Reassurance and Comfort when I needed it Most. It was unexpected an very appreciated when he would say “ don’t worry I got your back” it meant a lot and was Genuine but more importantly he showed it through his actions. He was a True Man of integrity. There was something I admired about the Man that I couldn’t quite figure out about him .. something in his Spirit that felt Pure. He was a Good Hearted Man and I haven’t met too many like him. It was A Pleasure to meet you Boruch ! May you Rest in Paradise 

Boruch always went out of his way to create a welcoming and inclusive space at his shop. Honest mechanics who treat their regulars like family are few and far between. He will be sorely missed.

To Shoshana and children: May his memory always be a blessing. Sending you love and healing energy during this difficult time.

Boruch and I were in high school together and then spent a year in the same Yeshiva in Eretz Yisroel. Although I lost touch with him around twenty years ago I still consider him my good friend.
Boruch will be remembered for his easygoing personality, his fun loving nature, his sense of humor. He will be remembered for his dedication to his learning and his chavrusas, his love for tzedakah and chesed and most of all for having a heart bigger than he was.
תהא זכרו ברוך. 

Mrs. Taub, I’m sending my condolences to you, the kids and family during this difficult time. 

I am deeply sorry to the Taub family for your tremendous lose. I’ve known Boruch since his first days in business in his small two bay repair shop. We’ve done business together ever since. Too know him for this many years has been a treasure for me. He truly was a man of integrity, honesty, and loyalty. He was also kind, generous, caring and considerate of others. I truly viewed him as my friend and treasured getting to know him. Please accepts my sincere condolences and my warmest thoughts about this wonderful man, husband, father and friend. I will keep your family in my prayers and I look forward to seeing him again. 

Mrs. Taub, children and family. It is with a heavy heart that I extend my deepest sympathy and condolences to you all. May The One who comforts surround you now and for the journey ahead.

Mr. Taub was the best mechanic and proprietor in Cleveland Heights. Our family really appreciated him.  He will truly be missed in our community. The Brown family sends sincere condolences to his family.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending prayers for the Taub family.

I offer my sympathies to all affected by the loss. 🕊

With great pride and enjoyment, I merited to be one of the educators involved in the chinuch of the this wonderful family during my years in Yeshiva Derech Hatorah, and, with my wife, as neighbors down the block.  The children, their pure faces and shining smiles, are a trademark of this family.  May Mrs. Taub and the children continue to be the great source of nachas to Boruch as they have always been; and may Boruch's deeds and memory be a constant source of strength and blessing to the family.
Sincerely and with deep sorrow,

To the Taub family I’m sending you my condolences and prayers to you and your family. He was always smiling and happy every time I went into the shop no matter what went on during the day. He made me very welcome coming into his shop for my confront stop and delivering the mail. I may not be your mail carrier anymore but you will always be family to me.
 Love always your Ex- Mail Lady Angie Hunter❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾

I recently had an article done (as some of you know and read) on me and the shop. I mentioned a friend Boruch Taub that helped me in so many ways and really pushed me to open a place of my own. He built and ran one of the best auto business' in town. We met through a problematic BMW at his shop years back. Someone recommended that I take a look and help out. I did. We became friends ever since. We went back and forth on many cars and bounced Ideas. We talked a lot over the years. Hundreds of conversations. He pushed me to open my own place until I did. His words of wisdom helped me in so many ways. I wouldn't have done this without him. He died in a plane crash last night. I'm seriously crushed. He was a big part of the Heights communities. Good friend to many. I can't imagine what his family is going through. I send my condolences to the family. He will be very much missed.

Our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and employees of Boruch.  He was a lovely man. 

Our family has been a customer of Masterworks since 2016.  I always enjoyed talking with Boruch and was very impressed with the honesty and integrity with which he ran his business. Just last week he asked about my almost-2 son (who loves cars) and said "I'm fond of that little guy".  So I brought my son in on Tuesday to see him. We will miss him.

To Shoshana and the children,
Boruch was a great neighbor and friend for the six years that we lived across the street. He always had a smile on his face and offered a helping hand. When he first opened his shop he fixed my car and I didn’t have enough to pay for it so he told me not to worry about it. I never forgot about it and my Hakaras Hatov is endless. If you’re ever in Lakewood and need anything please call me. Yaakov Cohen

I met Boruch as one of his customers. He was one of the most gracious people that I've ever met. I was really impressed by the way he built his business and the pride that he took in his work. He will be sorely missed in Cleveland Heights. I pray that God will bless and keep the family.

I had the pleasure of working with Boruch for several years. He was always so kind and understanding in what always weren't the easiest of circumstances nor environments. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, wife and children. May he rest in peace and his memory be eternal. 

Boruch!!

You were always so nice to me in high school. I remember we would rent blockbuster videos and watch them in the library. People aren’t always the nicest in high school but you really were a genuinely kind person. And smart!! You also did the funniest Guinea pig noises for me cause you knew it made me laugh. And I always begged you to do them. Our rooms were across from each other in senior year and we spent a lot of time together. Even though we haven’t talked in 20 years I remember it like it was yesterday. You will be very missed! ❤️

Shoshana and children, we send all of our love to you and your family.   Mr. Taub was a mentsch--- a family man, a business owner, and an all around NICE  man.  He is truly missed.

I am so sorry for your loss and heartbroken for you. You and your kids are in my prayers 

Baruch was a beautiful soul…. I had the privilege of sharing a shabbos   Dinner with him and his family a few weeks ago… the love he showed for his Wife and children,touched my heart… he-shared stories of specials gifts he surprised his wife with..as he looked at-her with love… he spoke about the dreams of his children….I pray for  
shoshana and his children …that his love will hold them-close and give them comfort…and that love gives  them strength  to honor his memory and make him proud….. I know he will always surround you….. may god grace you all

I also send prayers for his two beautiful sisters-and brother , who loved him dearly
