We regret to inform you of the Petirah of Mrs. Osnas Weitman A”H, wife of Reb Avrohom Weitman Z”L, who was Niftar this morning following an illness. She was in her mid-eighties.
Mrs. Weitman A”H, who lived in Lakewood for many years, including during the times of Reb Aron Zatzal, and moved to Eretz Yisroel several months ago, was known as a very Chashuve woman.
She is the mother of Reb Lipa Weitman (Lakewood), Shani Weitman, and Mrs. Rivki Kanarek (wife of Reb Shloime Chaim). Other siblings reside in Eretz Yisroel.
The Levaya took place today in Eretz Yisroel. Shivah details to follow.

What a special woman. A lot to learn from her ways. She will be missed by many.

A beautiful Legacy, She leaves behind thousands of Einiklach. Her children Rabbi and Mrs. Kanarek are responsible for the Chinuch of most Lakewood Children. Mrs. Kanarek is very involved in all areas of Chinuch and she follows example from her Illustrious Parents. yehi Zichro Boruch
Dear Shmuel dovid how many in lakewood can remember her father testing dayschool kids. A real old time lakewood family
The sweetest, most aidel lady I ever met. A part of Lakewood’s history as a lovely small Jewish community has gone from this world. Her legacy lives on in her wonderful children, who I had the privilege to know growing up and going to the Hebrew Day School. BD”E
BD”E. I happen to be wearing right now a shirt that she bought for me as a gift.
I didn’t know she had moved to Eretz Yisroel or that she was ill. This is a shock to me even more because to me she was unbelievably forever young. Her personality stayed the same, so sweet, kind and youthful over all these years and I wondered if she would ever age! BD”E
