R. Pichas Landoy knew Jews who still remembered the Apter Rav.

One of them related that when he was 18 years old the Apter Rav was in Berdichev and he went to visit the Rebbetzin of the Berdichever Rav.

When he crossed over the threshold of the house he called out: this is sacred ground since the Berdichever Rav walked here. He removed his shoes before he entered.
