Rav Shneur Kotler related that when his father, Rav Aharon Kotler, was hospitalized for medical treatment, Rav Aharon asked whether anyone had mentioned his situation to "the Rebbe." One of the relatives asked, "To which rebbe is the Rosh Hayeshiva referring?" Rav Aharon retorted, "When I say 'the Rebbe,' I mean the Kopycznitzer Rebbe."

Rav Shneur added that his father sent every chassan in the yeshiva to the Rebbe for a brocha before the wedding.
