May his memory be blessed
His memory is a blessing. Words of honor to be resolved (see also "His memory is a blessing").
("The memory of the righteous is a blessing, but the name of the wicked will rot" - Proverbs 10:7, and so on: "The order of the verses of Dzimra - and when Israel gathers in the synagogues to pray, the priest of the synagogue stands and opens: Blessed is he who said, and the world was... and at the appointed time he says, Blessed is he who has given feasts of joy and feasts of thanksgiving to his people Israel. Blessed is the living God. "Forever and ever, blessed is He, and blessed is His name, blessed is His memory forever" - Seder Rav Amram Gaon (Harpanas) Verses of Zimra)
