In Memoriam

I attended a very sad funeral today, for one of my professors.  Dr./Rabbi David B. Weisberg was the prof who taught my Bible class in the Rare Book room last year.  He was a stellar professor, but beyond that, was an absolute mensch.  He genuinely cared about each of his students and their families, and his enthusiasm for teaching and for Torah was boundless.  Last year we went to his house for Sukkot, and he gave Xander a toy fire truck to play with and gifted it to him when we left.  A week later, he sought me out in the hall to ask how Xander was doing, and if he thought we needed another truck to stave off jealousy with Ari.

He will be greatly missed.
