With great sadness I inform you that Gail Weinstein passed away this
morning, in her home in San Francisco.
In both work and play, Gail touched many lives, always working for good
causes, encouraging others to do the same, and finding ways to bring them
to a place where so many things were possible. She endured much pain and
anguish over the last few years but continued to be creative, proactive,
and caring for others, especially immigrant populations and underprivileged
ethnic groups. Even when she was here in Israel last year for
experimental treatment she made time to work with teachers who had been
involved with her 'Learners' Lives' Project. People's improved lives are a
worthy tribute to Gail's (until now) amazing energy and determination. May
she rest in peace. VSJ

about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet
by any."
