Don't click the article; you probably won't understand the patois. Here is what it means in regular English:
Under the guidance of Rabbi Meir Stern, the Dean of Passaic Yeshiva, around 34 years ago Rabbi Hirth started an orthodox school for children in a tiny converted house >
and ended up building huge buildings to accommodate the tremendous growth of the community over the past 34 years.
He built [and led] elementary divisions for boys and girls, a girls' high school, Passaic / Clifton's ritual bath (mikvah), and was involved in nearly every major >
charity organization and project in Jewish Passaic for the past three decades. His institutions now educate thousands of students (boys and girls) every year.

Rabbi Hirth knew he was living on borrowed time and spoke of it publicly. That didn't prepare us for his loss, though.

The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value.
Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated.
