Bert Lewyn

I was on line in an office supply store and behind me was a gentlemen commenting and joking about an odd display the store put together from various items like rubber bands, paper lips and more that was shaped in to a man like figure.
I noticed from his accent he was German and thought possibly Jewish as well. Then all of my years of watching WW2 documentaries kicked in and surmised he might have actually have been there as a child during that period judging from his accent and age. ...

Dear Mrs.Lewyn, Andy, Ed, Jake, Sloan, and the entire Lewyn family,
You are all in our thoughts and prayers. Your Father was such an amazing person. I know you will miss him dearly. He treasured you all as you treasured him.
All our love, Susan & Jack

So sorry for your loss.

He was one of those rare people who was modest, yet, everyone knew when he walked into the room.

Ruth and I express our deep sorrow to hear about Bert's passing. we heard he was ill when Alexandria visited us in Jerusalem last week and our thoughts were with him.
Bert was an inspirtion to all who know him and read his story how he survived during the Holocaust. His story was indicative of the will of the Jewish people to survive the hatred and persecution which has existed during our entire history.
To our family in Atlanta we say:


Steve and Ruth Adler, Jerusalem

My condolences to all the Lewyn family, which has been such an important part of our family, and a particularly important part of my parents' lives, for as long as I can remember. Hugs to all, Sincerely, Nancy Sturm

Esther,
My deepest condolences to you and your children on Bert's passing. He was an exceptional man and I am grateful for all he taught me through our many years together at Lewyn Machinery. It is an honor to have known him all these years.

My family and the Bert and Esther Lewyn family have been close friends for fifty years. Even though Bert has been in declining health for the past three years, it is difficult to except his loss. As was so accurately and elegantly stated in his obituary, in the beautiful memorial service today, and the internment service which followed at Arlington Cemetery, his life has been so challenging and heroic that we had thought of him as invincible.
Our love and our condolences go out to the...

It was an honor to meet Bert a few years ago in Israel. The story he tells in his book of his survival in Berlin is an incredible saga and an inspiration to all who read it. My heartfelt condolences to Eshter, Beverly, and the entire family.
