Francine Stein - No One Left Behind, 30 Strangers Came To Pay Their Respects
|
[Breitbart IS] 83-year-old Francine Stein was buried on Wednesday in the presence of strangers after it became apparent that she had no living relatives or friends that would attend.
A graveside funeral at Temple Israel Cemetery in Blauvelt in New York’s Rockland County was conducted by Rabbi Elchanan Weinbach.
Rabbi Weinbach’s daughter Ora, a high school teacher in New Jersey, asked people to come in a Facebook post.
"Huge mitzvah opportunity. A woman is being buried tomorrow who has LITERALLY NO ONE attending her funeral, other than the funeral home director and the rabbi (my father). Who would like to join me at the funeral? I will be leaving Teaneck at 10:45. Free lunch with the rabbi after," the post read.
Ora Weinbach said the post was instantly shared by her friends whose friends in turn shared it, bringing in the attendees less than 24 hours after she originally posted.
