Why didn’t Yeshiva World News post anything about her petira? It seemed awfully sudden. Other sites posted links to the livestream of the levaya….but no word posted here.
I’m not sure if you want an answer from other CR posters or YWN. If you want an answer from YWN, use the Contact tab on top right as the mods here have said that they have nothing to do with the news reported on YWN.
Question: Didn’t she pass away 11 years ago? Are you asking why YWN didn’t post something now?
Yserbius 123 – according to Wikipedia and other internet sources, Rebbetzin Deena Weinberg died in Jerusalem on March 12, 2023.
You are referring to the rebbetzin of Rav Noach Weinberg. I believe Rav Yosef Weinberg’s wife is/was (not sure she is still alive) Marsha Weinberg
Refoelzeev: If you are serious, perhaps you should identify WHICH of the several “Rebbitzen Weinbergs” who have been niftar in the past several years, and provide at least a minimal profile of her life and why it is newsworthy that this particular “Rebbitzen Weinberg” warranted coverage in the news pages. If it was one of the individuals speculated above, perhaps tell us which one.
It’s seems clear to me that the OP is referring to someone who passed away in the current news cycle.
Yes, Rebbetzin Deena Weinberg, the almanah of R’ Noach Weinberg, was niftar this past Sunday. I was at the levaya. I don’t know who it was who was niftar 11 years ago, but it was not her. She should be a meilitz yosher for all of Am Yisroel.
@MosheFromMidwood I was actually referring to Rebbetzin Chana Weinberg, who was a massive force in Torah, especially with her work in mental health, Shalom Bayis, and abused women. Rav Yaakov Weinberg ZT”L was the Rosh Yeshiva of Ner Yisroel for many years and was zoche to be married to her.
Perhaps we can be a little more specific considering it’s such a common name.
Refoel Zeev:
I have been wondering the exact same thing. You are right – about the lack of reporting, and that it should have been obvious, and that the confusion about it proves your original point!
“Everyone has heard of Rav Noach Weinberg, Aish, and presumably his wife’s parallel work with baalos teshuvos.”
Not to mention Rebitzin Weinberg’s role in making Aish itself.
R’ Noach zt”l and Rebbetzin Weinberg zt”l were of the most influential gedolim of our times, and it is shocking that there has been no article about her.
