"כפי הידוע לי את גודל ברית האהבה הכרותה בין כבודו ובין כבוד הרב הגאון האמתי, הצדיק יסוד עולם, המפורסם ברוב חיבוריו היקרים... הלא הוא אבי מורי ורבי מוהר"ר מאיר יונה זצ"ל. וכמה פעמים פקדו איש את שלום רעהו בברכות ידם, זה באור תורתו וזה מהונו, וגם רבות פעמים נלחמו בשערים מלחמות תורת ד' משיבת נפש, למזכרת האהבה כיאות לגדולי ערך' (Sefer Parnes L'Doro, page 83)
