Philip Roth

tremendous humor..insight..best spirit to Philip's memory...................................

We will miss our dear family friend, Philip Roth. He based many of the kinder characters in his novels on my father, Martin Weich, and my uncle Bernard (who passed in WWII) who Phil grew up with when they were kids in NJ. My Dad and he remained friends for over 8 decades and you can see my father in a documentary discussing Phil's writing with him and how fun it was to be a little part of Phil's world of characters...

Deepest sorrow to the family. May the God of love and peace also give you strength to endure this time of loss.

Thank you for the books I enjoyed reading and for your keen mind and writing genius. Rest in peace.

All of Weequahic mourns the loss of our hero. Missed him by one year, but I'm pretty sure we had the same creative writing teacher, Miss O'Conner, who taught us to " Be Specific!"

I have known you since I was thirteen and came across Portnoy's Complaint. Having no interest in sports, I looked up to you as many do their sports' heroes. I was fortunate enough to meet you five years ago and you were kind enough to autograph my copy of Sabbath's Theater. I'm glad you were recognized as a genius during your lifetime. I'll always cherish your work

Thank You for working so hard to get things right

Thank you mr Roth. Your works made me a better man and perhaps this world a better place to live.

Extending condolences to the family for your loss.

Thank you for your books. They speak to me, and they inspire me.

Thank you, Mr. Roth for many hours of delightful reading. You portraited human condition in the way classic authors like Shakespeare or Cervantes did. You will remain well alive in my thoughts and heart as in many others'. Rest in Peace.

Sorry for your Loss may the God of comfort be with you and your family at this time

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My sympathy to the family.

Deepest sympathies for the loss of Mr. Roth A very smart, but complex man. A wise man once said, "whereas you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. For you are a mist that appears for a little while and then disappears." Perhaps sentiments ofnMr. Roth as well.

Cherish your memories. His legacy lives on in his words which mattered to so many. i was a student in one of his classes at Penn. I cherish that memory.

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your love one.

Farewell to a great man and sublime writer. Thoughts, prayers & deep condolences to his family, friends & associates. His body of work will remain as his everlasting legacy. May he rest in eternal peace and may the perpetual light shine upon him.

You were a devoted and dear friend to my husband, the late Martin Weich. I'll miss hearing your tender --and often hilarious -- stories and memories about the 'Weequahic boys.' Both our son and I thank you for your loyalty and friendship to Martin and to us, as well. We'll miss you, Phil.
