Q. On question 3523 regarding if one is allowed to seat on the chair of an Eishes Chover, we wrote: “Shaarei Tzion quoting Horav Chaim Kanievsky Shlit’a (Hilchos Eishes Chover 17 p. 278) rules that another woman should not seat in that chair.
In a shul where the chair of the deceased long time serving Rabbi was kept as a honorarily remembrance to his name, in a corner of the Mizrach, since we say that Eishes Chover is like her husband the Chover, should her chair also be kept in the Ezras Noshim in a similar way?
A, Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that, it would seem an extreme act and a minhag not usually done and preferably avoided.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as advised by Horav Shlomo Miller, Horav Dovid Pam and Horav Aharon Miller Shlit’a.
