Not sure what to say?

Didnt really know him personally...only met him once...but he was married to Cynthia Gergel Wein and as she was always one of my favorite people in the world, so he had to be one great guy. Sheryl obviously had two terrific roll models...and it shows

I had few opportunities to meet him, yet felt close and got his humor. Love, Love, Love to Cynthia and Sheryl. Emilie Ryckebusch Cohen and Jack Cohen and Family

From the moment I met him, Uncle Buddy had a marvelous way of making me feel like I had always been part of the family, something that continues to touch my heart to this day. He had the rare ability to be completely genuine at all times while always remaining a gentleman- always so kind, generous, and very, very funny. Bruce, Alex, and I loved him dearly, and will miss him very much. Our love goes out to you all.

Mrs. Wein and Sheryl-l always remember, with a smile, the many times that Mr. Wein drove Sheryl, Amy and me to Erie Island Elementary School. He drove us in all kinds of bad weather. I can still recall the WAKR news broadcasts and tune that played on the radio as he drove us to school. Just another example of the kindness that he showed so many people. I was always a little in awe of him as a child because he ran a furniture store. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. Please know...

Buddy was like a second father to me. From teaching me and my son Brad to only turn the steaks once on the bbq to the many hours of instruction with Mark and me on Lake Nippising, Buddy combined humor and passion to make everyone around him feel special. I will always be grateful for the warmth and generous hospitality that Buddy and Cybthia always provided the visitor from the Great white North!

What a beautiful and rich tribute to a dearly-loved man. Praying for and thinking of everyone.

Cynthia and Sheryl, I was saddened when I heard the news. I have great memories of the time we shared on Nome Ave. I can not think of my first year at Akron University without remembering the Wein's family. My God give us all happy mories as we continue through life.
