Jay Weiss

Jay was my Dad, Bob Kimelman's best friend during his lifetime, as MaryBeth was my mother, Jean's closest friend. I grew up with Jenny, and know what an enermous loss this is to them and probably a thousand others. Jay got my former husband his first job. He was a hero to many of us for many reasons. He is a man about whom no one will ever say a bad word. He will truly be missed and is irreplaceable.

In the volunteer world we all came to know what a very kind and generous man Mr. Weiss has been over the many years to Beaux Arts, Junior League and the Red Cross-to name just a few. God bless your family in everyway through this sad time.

Jay was much esteemed in the community in which he lived and will always be remembered in the hearts of all that were privileged to know him. Our deep and sincere sympathy.

My deepest condolence to the Weiss family.

Jennie, Rayanne, and Laurie:
My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. Papa Weiss was an extraordinary man with a heart of gold...something his daughters definitely inherited. I know how much you will miss him. My prayers are with you.

Jennie, I was sadden when my wife read the obituary about your Father.I new Jay when I was working in nightclubs years before we met at Dade County. I want you to know you have my sympathy.I will always remember my last conversation with Jay in July.2003 Give my love to your family. I will keep you and your family in my prays. Ricky

Uncle Jay and his father, Uncle Julie supplied my brother, Steve and me with some of our most cherished childhood memories. Both were always warm, caring, and very generous with toys! My dad, Ray Pearson used to wake us at 3 AM on weekend mornings to drive down to Marathon, where Julie and Jay kept a boat. Captain Buddy guided us to the fishing holes.
When I was a little kid, Jay and Mary Beth’s daughters were the only friends I had who were girls. I miss those innocent 1960s.

Dear Weiss Family,
I was so saddened to hear the news about "JW". I will always be grateful for the time I had being in your family and knowing him and knowing all the wonderful things he did. I have followed all of his generosity over the years in different newspaper articles, and felt great pride that I had the opportunity to know him as well as all of you. My love to each and every one of you, you are in my heart and in my prayers...
Always,
Jen Teitler

What an honor it was to know Jay Weiss. We will remember him forever.
