How can we beseech Rachamim?

From a comment posted previously.
Lakewood has recently suffered many tragic losses of young people with untimely petiros. A 25 year old Kolell youngerman R"L a young kolell wife a one year old child, a Yeshiva bochur in his prime Lo aleinu all within the past month. We can not and do not know any cheshbonis from Shomayim hanistaros lahshem eloiykaynu, these events are beyond our control, understanding and comprehension. We listen to what the gedolim tell us, to do teshuva kol echad yefashfesh bemaasuv.
Its unfortunate though that there is an area where we do have the ability to control, yet its allowed to go on. The issue is the many living yesomim, heiliger innocent children that are made parent-less by our own doing.

Chaim Rosenberg Z''L
Over One thousand mourners paid their last respects to a dear friend Chaim yitzchok Rosenberg A''H. The Levaya Went out from the Lakewood Yeshiva Bais medrash Govoha were Chaim was learning for over a decade. Many friends also came from far whom learned with Chaim in previous yeshivos of  Bais in Israel and frisch school and YU.
Over 100 friends went to the Kevurah in Paramus NJ where he was laid to rest next to his father obm.
The Lakewood Roshei yeshiva Horav Yisrael Neuman and Rav Yerucham Olshin were maspid the niftar. They spoke about his being mishtatef  in others simcha as if it were  his own. He made a point to attend all of his friends wedding not just to be there but to truly feel the simcha of others and share in it. It made no difference what the age, even bochurim who were much younger than him, it did not bother him at all, he was truly happy for them.
One of the Roshei yeshiva mentioned how chaim Z'L was moser nefesh for Torah. He was a living example of what it means to give away of oneself in order to learn Torah.

Sudden petirah of Habachur Chaim Rosenberg Z'L

From MATZAV.COM 
It is with great sadness that we report the passing of R’ Chaim Rosenberg z”l. Chaim was a beloved longtime talmid of Beth Medrash Govoha in Lakewood. He was just 36 years old at the time of his passing. R’ Chaim hailed from Bergenfield, NJ,originally from  Washington heights and learned at YU and Yeshivas Mir-Yerushalayim before joining Beth Medrash Govoah. A true mentch and baal middos, he had numerous friends from all walks of life and endeared himself to all. One friend said after learning of his passing, “Who didn’t love Chaim? How could you not love him? He was so pure, so genuine, so kind. We are all in shock.” R’ Chaim was a picture of simchas hachaim, always smiling and ready to share a good word with one and all. His love for other people was always apparent, and his steady presence at Beth Medrash Govoha for so many years was a testament to his ahavas haTorah and his constant aliyah. A chavrusah of his told Matzav.com that he was always impressed by R’ Chaim’s diligence in learning, his ehrlichkeit, his pur values and strong hashkafos, and his meticulousness in keeping to his sedorim.

Brooklyn Hatzolah: New Kids’ Radio Puts Deadly Block on Frequency

Does Lakewood also have this problem?
BROOKLYN - A new radio sold in toy stores for children goes beyond listening in to Hatzolah calls, and at times has actually caused potentially deadly interferences with the rescue outfit’s radio frequencies, a Hatzolah official charged.

Herzka Halpert, the coordinator of Hatzolah of Boro Park, told Hamodia on Tuesday that they are urging parents not to purchase any radio that has the ability to transmit on the Hatzolah frequency, and confiscate them if their children already have them.
“These kids have already blocked the communications on a very serious call,” Hertzka said.
