LEWIS A. WEINTRAUB

The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away; Blessed be the Name of the Lord. Eddie Horwitz Catonsville, MD

I just found out that Uncle Lewis passed. My deepest sympathy to Rebecca, Samuel, Simkah and all the entire family. Love and miss you all.

My deepest condolences to the Weintraub family. We met him way back in 1969 when we immigrated from Argentina. We not only enjoyed him through services at Temple Israel, we often had Shabbat dinners with another family. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Weintraub Family,
I heard about Rabbi Weintraub's passing only tonight. My heart goes out to you all at this time of sadness. He officiated at every lifecycle ceremony in my family, including my wedding and those of my brother and sister. I have thought of him often on the eve of my ordination in June as he was the ideal rabbinic role model - a brilliant scholar and teacher and a mensch.

To the Weintraub Family,
I was greatly saddened to see the news of your beloved husband and father's passing. My family were members of Temple Israel from the 1960's.

Dear Weintraub/Prigal family,

So sorry to hear about Rabbi Weintraub. We lived next door to him and his family for many years.

Rabbi Weintraub married my husband and I almost 40 years ago, in 1973. We've had a good life and raised 2 wonderful sons. My husband, my brother, and I all attended his Sunday school. He made our world a better place. Shalom, Rabbi.

Sincerely, Leslie Raines Gelman

I was Bar Mitzvah'd at Temple Israel, Silver Spring, Maryland, in 1960, and Rabbi Weintraub presided at the service there. He also officiated at my sister's wedding in 1973. Many decades later, circa 2005, I spied a familiar face across the swimming pool here in Deerfield Beach, Florida. I walked over and asked, "Are you Lewis Weintraub, Rabbi Lewis Weintraub?" He was, indeed. What were the chances that of all the retirement communities in Florida, we would not only share the same one,...
