Dear Blanche- I was very sorry to read about Sandy today. Both of you were so supportive throughout all my parent’s health problems, & I know they appreciated you both enormously for all your kindness & compassion over the decades. My heart goes out to you & your entire family during this enormous time of loss & sadness. Please accept my most sincere condolences & know that your family, the Weltman’s, & the Deutsch’s have always been a warm & loving presence in my family’s history.

I had the pleasure of knowing Sandy through my boss, Jerome Marks. Sandy would occassionally come into our office, always wearing a big grin and offering stories to make us all laugh and brighten our days. He was a ray of sunshine! My thoughts and prayers are with his family during this very difficult time.

Dear Aunt Blanche, Elise and Brian, Words cannot express the lost that you are feeling. For the last few days I have been very saddened myself of the news of my Uncle's passing. One thing that seemed to help me feel a little better was being able to share a lot of good memories with my daughter Ashley. Even though many years have passed since I got to spend time with my Uncle I still have some great memories and learning experiences that are with me today. Some of them are even getting passed down to my daughters as well. For me my best memories of my Uncle was knowing him for his sense of adventure. Whether it was treasure hunting, a trip to the race tracks or knocking on the door of the home he grew up in asking them if he could show his nephew the house. The treasure hunting is now part of my everyday life along with collecting numerous things. It's something that I enjoyed very much doing with my Uncle. Digging through someone's attic or basement or even cleaning out one of his rental units with him, was always a learning experience and an educational one. Not everything is just junk you know, he would say. People are willing to pay this and that for certain particular items. I asked him why they would and he replied because some things can bring back good memories from ones past. Along with an educational experience was the art of negotiations. I remember him telling me why pay retail when you can negotiate for a better price. This was to me, now looking back, the most fascinating aspect of his skills. He could always strike up a conversation with anyone and win them over by relating to them in some way, whether it was asking them if they knew so and so or if it was listening to the individual sharing the history of something. Most of the time this technique worked and even when it didn't he still ended up happy to have shared the story. He told me that even though sometimes he felt it could be a waste of his time you just never knew what kind of helpful information you can come across. My daughter recently asked me why I seem so openly friendly to new people that I just met at an auction? I find myself explaining to her some of the very same things that my Uncle explained to me years ago. It seems as I get older things in different ways become more clear in retrospect. Perhaps the best way to honor and show our appreciation for the people that made an impact in our lives is to try to pass down and share to the next generation the things we learned from those people. There are many a times that I look back now and can see very clearly that my Uncle was trying to teach me just a little bit about responsibility as well. Perhaps becoming a parent myself, has shed a lot of new light on things and for that I am grateful. Love Your Nephew and Cousin Mark Deutsch

I was a student of Mr. Weltman's in 1965 at Cardinal Mooney HS in his American History class. Because of Mr. Weltman's great class, I was inspired to become a high school history teacher. As fate would have it, I ended up working with Mr. Weltman at Webster Schroeder HS for a number of years. During the many years that I knew him, it was obvious to me that he was not only an inspiring teacher but a kind, caring human being as well. The world has certainly become a better place because of Mr. Weltman. He touched many lives and he will be greatly missed.

Though time and distance did not allow us to meet again face to face, at least we reconnected this summer, albeit by telephone and letters. I will miss you, Sandy, and treasure the memories of our days we shared long ago at Monroe High School. My thoughts are prayers are with you and your family. May they take comfort in knowing caring thoughts are with them as they mourn their loss. Goodbye dear friend ~ Nellie

Mr. Weltman was my social studies teacher during my first year at Cardinal Mooney H.S. in 1965. I recall him as a kind, well-informed and enthusiastic teacher. I have been a teacher since 1974 and I occasionally pass on too my students some helpful phrases I remember from Mr. Weltman's class. My condolences.
