JESSE WIENER Obituary

WIENER, JESSE L., of Hollywood, Florida and Queens, New York, passed away on May 27th, one day short of his 93rd birthday. He is survived by his wife, Celia, of 59 years, six children, nine grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. Born and raised in Middle Village, N.Y., Jesse was a WWII Veteran SeaBee in the 78th Battalion. He was an avid deep-sea fisherman and golfer. Prominent leader in the metal manufacturing industry for more than 60 years, Jesse worked at his business, Juniper Elbow, in New York until January of this year. He was an individual with a reputation of honesty and integrity. His charitable endeavors spanned all social boundaries. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge, and the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers. Jesse's zest for life, and his impact on the lives of those he touched will remain with us forever.

Oue deepest sympathy to Celia and the family. Jesse was a great friend. I was in the 78th Navy Seabees with Jesse in the South Pacific 1944 and 1945.He always had a great sense of humor no matter how bad the conditions or the food was. How great it was when Jesse and Celia came to our 78th Navy Reunions and the great times we had he always kept us in a good mood. After the War he would take us golfing my wife and I really enjoyed that. He will be greatly missed and he can never be replaced. Ned and Rebecca Young

My deepest sympathy to the family. Jesse gave me my first JOb that lasted over 15 years. He was a great boss and me laugh at some of his stories and experiences he went through. He will be deeply missed. He always said wonderful things about his wife, kids and grandchildren. Gone but not forgotten!!!

Jesse touched so many lives with his positive attitude, sense of humor and zest for life. Whenever I would ask him if he would like a drink, he always replied..."The only time I ever said NO was when I didn't hear the question". Every passenger that sat next to him, left with a smile on their face. I remember Jesse for as many years as I have been flying, (38), I will miss him so much on my NYC flights....but Jesse, THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES, a life well lived.

When Delta had Song, Jesse would board the plane every Monday morning and stow his hat in a special cabinet I saved for him. He and his buddy Alfred would sit across from my and both would updated me on their families and work. Jesse always said he kept his wife happy by giving her the checkbook. He would also share about the next family cruise he was taking the entire family on. Jesse was a beautiful soul with a charming delightful positive attitude. I shall miss him dearly as now I am the one commuting up to NYC for Delta.

I am so pleased to add my words from another Delta flight attendant who Mr Wiener touched. It was always a delight to see his name on the pre-departure report. You knew you would have at least ONE gracious passenger and one with a twinkle in his eye! He will be missed by all of us who worked first class on this route. . . Joan Holzer
