Journal entry by Zachary Weil —
My brother and his fiancee Julie will be hosting a Zoom shiva celebration of my dad's life over the next couple of days. Please see the email below and feel free to join us if you'd like.
Dear friends and family,
Dear friends and family,
As many of you know, my dad Jeff Weil died yesterday. My mom was by his side, three days after they celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary.
All of your support has meant so much to my family since my dad's brain tumor was discovered in September. While we cannot gather in person due to the pandemic, we will come together on Zoom to mourn and to celebrate my dad's life.
We hope you will come to this Zoom shiva (Jewish mourning gathering) with a brief story or anecdote about Jeff to share if you are comfortable. We've already heard so many stories in recent days about his acts of friendship over the years, and we hope we can laugh together as we remember more.
We'll host three shiva Zooms this weekend. So that you can see other people you know, we suggest a Weil night, a Greenberg night, and a friends night. But everyone is welcome on any day; please feel free to come to whichever of these gatherings fits your schedule. Click on the link to join the Zoom gathering.
Get in touch if you have any questions about how to participate. We hope to see you soon, and to host an in-person celebration of Jeff's life once it is safe to do so. All of you meant so much to my dad.
Warmly,
Gabe
