RABBI GORDIN DIES SUDDENLY AT HIS PRAYERS Birth: 1854 Death: Apr. 11, 1925
Chief Rabbi Jehuda Leib Gordin, head of the Chicago Orthodox Rabbinical association, last night stood at his wall in the old fashion of the patriarchs and said his evening prayer. He was 71 years old. Years of pursuit of knowledge – the rabbi is rated by his race as one of its greatest Hebrew scholars – and the toil of his religious service has weakened his heart.
As he softly intoned the sonorous prayers for the evening, his voice quavered into silence. The venerable body slid to the floor. Heart disease was the cause of death. Rabbi Gordin had charge of the Tisereth Zion synagogue. He had written many books and had achieved fame in Jewish circles on an international scale. Chicago Daily Tribune – April 12, 1925

More than 35,000 people are expected to be in the funeral cortege,
including all rabbis from within a day's ride of the city and many members of their congregations. The line of march will proceed from the residence at 1401 North Hoyne avenue, to the synagogue at 1243 North Lincoln street.
Services will be held while the body, following an ancient custom of the Jews, remains outside the synagogue.

Enroute to the Tifereth Zion cemetery on Roosevelt road, the funeral will halt in front of the Beth Hamedrash L'Horah, the training school for rabbis, of which Rabbi Gordin was dean. Chicago Daily Tribune – April 13, 1925
