Martin K. Greenwald
July 19, 1936 - April 11, 2012

Martin K. Greenwald, 75, of Teaneck, NJ and Matamoras, PA, died peacefully in NYC on April 11, following a second bout of leukemia. He fought heroically and without reserve but met death surrounded by his loving and constantly supportive family. The funeral took place on April 12.
Born in NYC, Martin was raised in Wurtsboro, NY. He graduated from Monticello High School and Fordham University with a degree in pharmacy. Growing up, he worked in the Wurtsboro Pharmacy, operated by his own pharmacist parents, Florence and Jack Greenwald. Ultimately, he owned the Milford Drugstore, where he was beloved by all for his compassion, knowledge and generosity.
He married the former Vera Goodman of Vineland, NJ, celebrating over 50 years of marriage. They had three children, Shari, (David Mendes), Joel (Debbie), and Daniel (Babette) and eight grandchildren. They were the love of his life.
Martin and Vera had their primary home in Teaneck, but equally loved their farm in Matamoras, where Martin spent happy days with his family and friends, photographing birds, taking hikes and planting unbelievable gardens, as well as an apartment in Jerusalem to be near their daughter and her family in Israel.
Additionally, he was named to the first Board of Directors of the Community Bank of Orange, a position he continued to hold.
He will be missed for his wisdom, love of religion, his beloved New York Jets and awareness of the great gift of life he had been given to share with his children and grandchildren.
In addition to his immediate family, he is survived by his two brothers, Dennis Greenwald and Gary Greenwald and their families.
Shiva will take place at his home in Teaneck, NJ and locally, at the home of Gary Greenwald, Twin Oaks, 395 Sarah Wells Trail, Goshen, on Monday to Wednesday nights from 5 to 8 p.m.

James Wexler

Let us sing of James Wexler’s life to the sound of Clark Kessinger’s fiddle, William Kapell’s Rachmaninoff Concerto No. 2, and Hindesmith’s Mathis der Maler Symphony.
A musician, a photographer, a Rolling Stones fan, and a gentleman.
From his first day in Brooklyn on the 17th of January 1946, on to Monti High, then to Franklin & Marshall, NYU, and to the gathering of fiddlers at Galax, Virginia.
As we pause to Hindesmith’s poem, we recall his love of the Correctone Stringband and his smile at the Shandelee Music Festival upon the mountaintop.
His niece Nancy, nephew Doug, sister-in-law Gigi, and brother David will sing his name on spring sunrises and fall sunsets. April 15 will be his remembrance in Tucson with Ed Abbey humor and foot tapping Irish reels. Time is a dream, and so let us put the chairs on the tables, toast one more time, and leave the door open for the songs of tomorrow and yesterday. For this time, Jim is playing with Earl Scruggs and laughing with Van Gogh while the stars dance around the night’s canvas.
James Wexler, January 17, 1946 to March 2, 2012. Rest easy gentle prince.
