My heartfelt sympathy to the family. I will miss meeting him and Gloria walking together in the hall as well as him reminding me about the Parsha of the week. His pet name for me was "the Rabbi's mother".He always told me he had a his sister z"l who had a name similar to mine. May his soul rest in peace.

Dear Gloria, Stanley and Evelyn, Our sincerest condolences on the loss of Chaim. My mother Annette was deeply saddened to learn about this horrible news. My parents had a very long and great friendship with Chaim and Gloria. My late father Philip enjoyed spending time with "Chaimy" as they had a shared past as Holocaust survivors and a common trade. My siblings and I also have fond memories of Chaim. I ("Richy") remember his kind and gentle way and even remember playing as a child in his living room with Stanley's toys when I was a small boy and Chaim would always engage and joke with me. I can still remember his distinct voice. BDH

Dear Feinberg Family, My husband Lorrie and I shall miss Mr. Feinberg’s gentle smile and kind words at 7300 Yonge Street. His presence always brought a smile to everyone who greeted him.

I was touched listening to Mrs. Feinberg’s stories of their beautiful family. May Mr. Feinberg’s memory be for a blessing and may his neshama have an Aliyah. Baruch Dayan Haemes.

It was a great pleasure to be Chaim's family doctor for many years up to my retirement about 1 year ago. Such a mensch Chaim was. Kind and thoughtful always. Since his son was a well known doctor at NYGH I would always ask if he wanted me to consult with his son. He was very independent minded and always stated he did not want to bother his son and he could decide for himself. WAS ALWAYS THINKING OF OTHERS OVER HIS OWN WELFARE.

Although we weren’t technically “family”, our families couldn’t have been closer growing up. I still remember getting together when we all lived near Keele and Wilson over 50 years ago. We shared countless dinners for Rosh Hashanah and carried on that tradition with Evie for years too. I remember so many dinners on Bryant, playing ping pong in the basement, and so many memories. Condolences to all the Feinberg and Jesin families. Molly and Neal Applebaum, Sharon, and Marlene.
