I met Jerry soon after l was engaged. He made a beautiful shava brucha for us. Whatever the situation, Jerry had a way with words that would lift you up and a chance meeting would become meaningful. May his family be blessed for his goodness. Esther Mentz

As a young girl coming to crown heights each year for chof beis shvat, the Simons always hosted me for a meal or two. R’ Simon was always kind and hospitable, and always made an impact on me. May his neshama have an aliyah.

Two words “shain kןnd” that can keep a person going the nickname you gave me. You & your family have been my family with your doors & hearts open wide. I will carry that kindness forever!!!

Hashem has your soul at peace. May you have nachas in shamayim from your beautiful mishpacha.

Malkie, Chana Etka, Tzirl, Aliza, Nechama & all ~ I am so sorry for your loss.

Sending my love to a dear, special, BRAVE family, sheyichyu-who despite the nisyonos that Hashem has sent your way- for far too many years- you ARE always a joy to know, to love and to respect.

We are working so hard to bring the Geulah Shleimah. May it come NOW, IY”H.

To Malka, Tzirl, Aliza, Nechama and all members of the extended Simon Family, sheyichyu – it is a privilege to know you.

Love,
Penina Metal
