Please accept our deepest condolences on the untimely passing of Rabbi Aimee. She officiated at our grandson `s naming ceremony six years ago but we can still recall her warm, outgoing personality and smile. Our hearts go out to her family, friends and community.

Rabbi Aimee was the officiant at my wedding. She was so welcoming, warm, and went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable with Jewish traditions. After my husband, David, passed away from cancer right after our baby was born, Rabbi Aimee drove all the way to Oxnard to conduct the naming ceremony for my son. She told me that day about her health challenges and I felt so humbled by her generosity. She said it was very important for her to be present for my son and I. I will never, never...

I am brokenhearted to learn of Aimee's passing. She is an inspiration to me for how to both build a caring community and hold space for oneself. Funny, brilliant, talented, and a beautiful human.

We remember Aimee as a brilliant, fun-loving, joyful and very, very funny teenager. She will always live in our hearts and minds as that curly-haired girl. May her memory be for a blessing. Our deepest condolences to all. The Schears

When Rabbi Aimee led our Friday Shabbat Sings, she communicated her joy in our Jewish faith and heritage through stories and songs which touched our hearts-...
