Dear Michael and Family,

Mickey was one of the kindest, loving, sweet, gentle and elegant women that Susan and I ever met. She always had a smile on her face, a twinkle in her eye and never a bad word for anyone. She was respected and loved by all who knew her. In addition to being a wonderful wife and devoted mother, she found the time to serve her community in so many ways, in public service, in the business world, and in everything with which she became involved. We will be with you in prayer and spirit tomorrow. Her memory is truly "For a Blessing!"

Mickey Weinstein was an amazing woman that we had the privilege to become friends with, work with, and sit on hole in one's with for many years at the JCC. Her 22k gold heart extended not only to her beloved family, friends, but to the greater good of the Community. Her hand and heart were always out help. I will treasure the picture and the beautiful frame she gave to me when I chaired the Annual JCC Meeting, awarding her for her valued service. It sits on my desk for me to smile at and remember this remarkable woman and friend.
Michael you will always be Mickey's hero. May her memory be for a blessing. Our deepest sympathies to the entire family.
Fondly, Judy and David Rosenthal

Mickey was truly a special woman. There are no words good enough to honor her memory, but people should try. She was the most giving person around. Not only money, but her time and energy was spent helping others. A great mother, wife, and friend to those who were fortunate enough to be loved by her. I will sorely miss her.
Michael, my heart goes out to you.
