It is with great sadness that I share with the congregation news of the
passing yesterday of Robert Beningson, a lifelong TBE member (from a founding family), husband of Renee Beningson of blessed memory.
He is survived by his daughters Robin and Susan, his "sons by choice," Joseph and William Coplin, his grandchildren, Max, Hannah and Maxine, his brother Herbert and an extended, deeply connected family.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Jill Melmed-Buzzeo Award, jmbaward.com, an organization founded by Bob's niece to equip underserved young women with the tools and support to advance their professional dreams and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in memory of Robert M. Beningson '50.
The funeral will be held at Temple Beth El on Friday at 11 AM.
May the mourners be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.
Rabbi Joshua Hammerman
