In 5719, before his marriage, the Rebbe appointed Rabbi Eidelman as the Shliach to Morocco. He left to Morocco a few days after his wedding to his wife Gittel (nee Gurkov), on Zos Chanukah of that year.

He is also survived by his sister, Assya Pevsner of France. (The family has requested not to notify her)
He was predeceased by his son, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Eidelman, OB”M, of Eretz Yisroel.
