completely anachronistic to call him "modern Orthodox"
 
he was Orthodox, a Torah Jew -- his enemy was Reform, not chareidim  
(another term that would be anachronistic if applied to 19th century Torah  Jews)
 
He is the father and exemplar of all modern Torah-observant Jews,  MO and 
chareidi, if by "modern" you mean currently alive.
